“We have been preparing for the Final Four since we qualified. Finally, there will be many fans at the event and I think all of us, players, want to give emotions to those who are watching. It will be a Final Four where the emotional aspect will be important. Each of the four teams will give their best on the court to bring home the trophy.” Wilfredo Leon, outside hitter and captain of Sir Safety Conad Perugia
“It's my first year in Italy and it's great to play in this championship. The Final Four will be truly a great emotion. We want to entertain everyone, including ourselves. We know that we play against a very strong team, so we will try to play our best volleyball.” Antoine Brizard, setter and captain of Gas Sales Bluenergy Piacenza
“I am happy that we have managed to solve our physical problems in recent weeks - just on the eve of this competition - and I hope that we can actually be at our best to play a great Final Four.” Matey Kaziyski, outside hitter and captain of Itas Trentino Trento
“I play volleyball because I like it, because I have dreams and the Final Four is one of them. When Milan and I chose each other years ago, I was aware that I was no longer in a team aiming for all the finals, but at the same time the thing that has always moved me has been the strength to try and reach them. I think this is what moves the staff, the players, the public and the club to invest and believe. I have always said that the Final Four is the thing about the whole season that I like the best, because you know that after that the path will continue with all your teammates. Then, playing games in front of a large audience at a large venue, with many players and several different teams, is another reason to love this event.” Matteo Piano, middle blocker and captain of Allianz Milan
