As Gian Luca Pasini wrote in his blog, the Russian and Italian men’s titleholders wanted to make an exchange of players, and not any players! The Cuban Wilfredo León was supposed to go to Cucine Lube Civitanova, while his compatriot Osmany Juantorena would go in the opposite direction, to Zenit Kazan.
But, according to the same source, Juantorena said no to Kazan team and the idea of a trade was abandoned.
As for León, there are other negotiations open to bring him to Italy. It is unknown if Sir Safety Conad Perguia are still the option to hire Cuban superstar.
