Within a few hours, information about a separation between Itas Trentino and Fabio Soli emerged, followed by an immediate denial from the European club champion.

News appeared in "Gazzetta dello Sport" that Itas Trentino intends to change its coach. The "pink newspaper" wrote: "Success in the last Champions League and the current second place in the championship may not be enough for Fabio Soli to renew his contract with Itas Trentino. The club is considering other options. Marcelo Mendez, an Argentine, bronze medalist with 'La Albiceleste' from Tokyo 2021 and currently at the helm of Polish Jastrzębski, who also has offers from Japan.In addition to him, the option of Kiko Blengini, who is ready to leave Bulgaria, is also being explored.

A lightning-fast official statement followed: "Trentino Volley strongly denies the information published on page 44 in today's edition of 'La Gazzetta dello Sport' regarding possible contacts with other coaches to replace the men's team head coach Fabio Soli, as the news is completely unfounded."

In short, the feeling is that someone wanted to rush events. Fabio Soli is still firmly at the helm of the team, pursuing Itas's big goals in a season that is about to enter its decisive phase (the Italian Cup is the first competition). Later, when the time comes, the continuation of a relationship that has so far been positive will be decided.
