There’s heartbreaking news for Cucine Lube Civitanova fans—Fabio Balaso, the heart and soul of the team’s defense, has suffered a serious injury that could keep him out for the rest of the season.
During today’s training session at the Eurosuole Forum, Balaso had an unfortunate collision with a teammate, injuring his right hand. He was quickly taken to Villa Pini Clinic in Civitanova Marche, where tests revealed a spiral fracture in his fourth metacarpal.
As team captain and a key player in both reception and defense, Balaso’s absence could be a massive setback for Lube, especially heading into the crucial final stretch of the season. The club’s medical staff will be monitoring his recovery closely in the coming days.
