De Bortori was in a second libero position in this tournament and didn't have many opportunities to play, but he is the starting libero for his club, Chieri, which came in third in last season's Italian Cup. The Italian women's team in this tournament was made up mainly of young players, just like the men's, so he still has a long way to go before he can become the libero for the national team, but just like the setter, I think the libero position is one that grows with age and experience, so I look forward to seeing him do well in the future.
This time, we were only able to introduce a very limited number of players, seven per position, but just like with the men's players, we hope that you will be able to find your favorite player and make watching volleyball even more enjoyable!
