Nicola Negro enters his sixth season with the Gerdau Minas, boasting significant achievements: three Superliga titles, two Copa Brasil victories, and a Supercopa win. Before joining Minas in 2019/2020, he coached teams in Italy, Slovenia, Poland, Romania, and Azerbaijan.

Reflecting on his tenure, Negro expressed his joy: “I’m thrilled to continue this journey with Minas. Last year, we secured three major trophies, including the Supercopa.”

Gerdau Minas has a 16-player roster for the 2024/25 season: middle blockers Julia Kudiess, Kelly Gomes, Rebeca, Giovana Guimarães, and Thaisa; setters Fran Tomazoni and Jenna Gray; opposites Kisy and Amanda Marques; liberos Larissa Fortes and Kika; and outside hitters Pri Daroit, Peña, Glayce Kelly, Celeste Plak, and Victoria.
