Italy: it’s official! Ran Takahashi to Padova

It’s official!
Japanese outside hitter Ran Takahashi, from Nippon Sport Science University, is a new player of Superlega Club Kioene Padova.
Despite his 20 years old, he boasts several appearances in his country’s national team.
He is the third Japanese of the Italian Superlega, joining Yuki Ishikawa (who, a few seasons ago, had worn just Padova’s jersey and, currently in Milano, he will face his former team this Sunday), and Yuji Nishida (Vibo Valentia).
The player, born in 2001, will arrive in Italy next week and, after routine medical visits, will join Cuttini’s team to be immediately available for league matches.
