Gabriel Volpi’s departure has shaken the foundations of Pro Reko. The most successful water polo club in the world without its main sponsor, through whose help it has dominated for the last 20 years, is losing power, and it is a big question whether it will play in the group stage of the Champions League.
Club president Maurizio Felugo, as reported by Italian media, is seeking sponsors, negotiating with entrepreneurs from Liguria, but it is clear that Reko will no longer be as dominant as in Volpi’s era. The current reality is that all the stars can leave the club because the club cannot meet its financial obligations to them. However, Felugo hopes that some of them will stay and announces that at this moment it is important to establish new foundations for Reko.
This means starting over, focusing on their youth. At this moment, it is certain that Reko will play in the domestic Italian championship, while funds for salaries and participation in the Champions League are lacking. The club is ready, if it does not find a new strong sponsor, to give up the fight for trophies in the new season and to create a new team with young players.
The departure of Gabrijel Volpi has certainly shocked the club Pro Reko. The most successful water polo club in the world is now without its main sponsor, who has helped the club dominate for the past 20 years. It remains to be seen whether the club will be able to compete in the group stage of the Champions League without a major sponsor.
According to reports in Italian media, club president Maurizio Felugo is currently seeking new sponsors and negotiating with entrepreneurs from Liguria. However, it is clear that Pro Reko will no longer have the same level of dominance without Volpi’s support. There is a real possibility that all the star players could leave the club due to financial difficulties.
Felugo is optimistic that some players will stay and is focusing on building a new foundation for the club. The current plan is for Pro Reko to compete in the Italian domestic league, as they do not have the funds for salaries or participation in the Champions League. The club is prepared to forego the pursuit of trophies in the upcoming season and instead focus on developing a team of young players.
The departure of Gabrijel Volpi has definitely left Pro Reko in a tough spot. The club, which has been the most successful water polo club in the world, is now without its main sponsor. It remains to be seen whether they will be able to continue their dominance without the financial support they have had for the past 20 years.
President of the club, Maurizio Felugo, is actively seeking new sponsors and trying to secure funding from entrepreneurs in the Ligurian region. However, it is clear that the club will not be able to maintain the same level of success without a major sponsor like Volpi. There is a real possibility that all of the star players could leave the club due to financial constraints.
Felugo is hopeful that some players will stay on and is focusing on rebuilding the foundation of the club. At this point, it is likely that Pro Reko will only compete in the Italian domestic league as they do not have the resources to pay salaries or participate in the Champions League. The club is prepared to take a step back from competing for trophies in order to focus on developing a new team of young players.
