From the celebration on the field, from the tears of joy shed in Manila, to Rome’s embrace to the World Champion boys.
At 8:05 p.m. this evening, the men’s national team, led by Ferdinando De Giorgi, touched the ground of the runway at Rome Fiumicino Airport “Leonardo Da Vinci” and received applause inside the airport and from the numerous media present at terminal 3.
The first ones to walk through the gate door and show the trophy conquered in the Philippines were the blue captain Simone Giannelli and CT De Giorgi.
Behind them all the other 13 heroes followed by the entire azure staff, federal president Giuseppe Manfredi, vice president Massimo Sala and secretary general Stefano Bellotti.
The Italian national team, which won its fifth men’s World Championship title, the second consecutive, has been invited by the President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella to the Quirinale for Wednesday, October 8 at 4 p.m.
De Giorgi’s boys thus join Velasco’s girls, already previously invited after their victory at the World Championships in Thailand last Sept. 7.
In the meantime, however, they are enjoying this crowd bath.
These are not usual scenes.
Although it is the second consecutive title.
Three years ago the Azzurri had already triumphed.
Overall, it is the fifth rainbow title.
De Giorgi has always been there, on the field or on the bench.

Captain Gianelli raised the cup.

“After so many years here is home, I don’t see myself wearing any other colors! I will give all myself again next season as I have been doing for so long for this jersey – she added -. I love this environment and our fantastic fans, my teammates and I are lucky to work and live in a club that supports us and has great ambitions for the coming years as well, the same as I have. I still have great motivation and a great desire to have fun with “my” Prosecco DOC Imoco Volley” jersey.

Recently named World’s Best Player for 2025. class of 1987, libero, “Moki” is a “monument” of international volleyball who has been wearing the Panthers’ jersey since 2013, with which she has won all 29 trophies in the club’s history.

“Monica De Gennaro is a fantastic player and a special girl who has been all the way with us from the beginning, she is the mainstay of our team and an example for her teammates, the protagonist of all our victories and all the most important moments in our history. She as long as she wants to be a Panther, every year she decides whether to move on and having her with us on the court again next year is a guarantee of excellence for us. Monica for us is more than a player, she is one of our family” the thought of Pietro Maschio, co-president and market man of Prosecco DOC Imoco Volleyball.
