Athina Papafotiou, a 27-year-old French champion with ASPTT Mulhouse, changed direction in the last moment and joined Imoco instead of Foppapedretti Bergamo, as some media reported yesterday.
Thus, Papafotiou will make a setter duo of Imoco with another newcomer to the club, Polish Joanna Wołosz (Chemik Police).
Previously, Imoco hired American receivers Kim Hill (VakıfBank İstanbul) and Megan Easy (Henan), Croatian opposite Samanta Fabris (Pomì Casalmaggiore) and middle blocker Laura Melandri (Il Bisonte Firenze).
They renewed with Mexican receiver Samantha Bricio, another receiver Elisa Cella and middle blockers Raphaela Folie and Anna Danesi, while Daniele Santarelli has been promoted to the head coach after being Davide Mazzanti’s assistant last season.
