In the last Argentine Serie A1 season, Santucci was the best in defence and 2nd best receiver with a 60,76% efficiency. Also, he has been called again by Javier Weber to be a part of the World League´s roster. The 25 years-old player has had a lot of success in the last seasons and now he received the opportunity from Spacers TOULOUSE. Facundo appreciates it, and shares his feelings with us:
– How did Spacers TOULOUSE chose you?
– They were looking for a libero and my manager Marcus Eloe, negotiated my transfer. They had to talk to other players too, but the coach wanted me to sign as soon as possible..
– You had the chance to leave Boca before, why did you do it now?
– Yes, there were other opportunities, but they weren’t like this one. I think I’m in my best moment now, mature and experience enough to face the challenge. I Hope I can give back the confidence they gave me.
– It’s hard to say goodbye?
– It really is, I didn’t realize it at first; but when Boca plays its first match without me, then I’ll understand and that’s gonna hurt. But I’m not saying goodbye, cause I started in Boca and I’m also a big fan. I have the chance to improve my career now but I will miss the squad a lot. I spent many years there, but I’m sure I’ll be back to represent the team because I love winning.
– What do you know about TOULOUSE?
– I know the goal is to get in the Ligue AM play-offs, and that Andre Radtke is going to be there too. Also Marcus Eloe’s brother is there. Everything is going to be new for me, but I have lot of expectations and hope of this project.
– What do you expect?
– I want to play a good season, have the confidence of my teammates, improve myself and to be known in Europe; the outside market is important, so I have to do my best.
