ITA M: See entire transfer activity of Italian clubs for season 2015/16

Miljković

As schedule for the Italian league 2015/2016 was announced, with several clubs complaining about it, we present you the entire activity of Serie A1 teams in the summer transfer window.

Our modest opinion is that Cucine Lube Banca Marche Civitanova is the main favorite for the title since they have created a true dream team, ahead with Serbian legend Ivan Miljković.

Current champions Diatec Trentino lost its main player from previous season, the Bulgarian Matey Kaziyski who departed to Japan, but still has respectable roster.

Interestingly, vice-champions Modena Volley didn’t change its squad significantly, just returned one player from a loan and hired Brazilian star Lucas Saatkamp. It doesn’t matter as it kept powerful squad.

Sir Safety Conad Perugia and Exprivia Molfetta also had great transfer campaigns…
