A1 M – Roma Vis Nova, the talented Jerko Penava arrives from Croatia

Another piece is added to the board of Roma Vis Nova, which in recent days has made yet another transfer coup. The talented Jerko Penava arrives from Mladost, one of the most interesting elements launched by the Croatian youth national teams in recent years. Born on 13 April 2001, striker, "good hand" can play in position 4-5, fast, fits in very well, perfect for Calcaterra's game. Prospective player, in his first Italian experience, he trained in OVK Split, Split, before arriving in Zagreb. With Mladost he played in the Euro Cup last year. The thought of the player himself: “It's my first time abroad, it's a big step for my career. I know the Italian championship, I think it is one of the best, if not the best, in the world. I expect to grow and improve. I want to give my contribution so that the team positions itself higher in the standings than last season, I hope to show off my qualities. It will also be a great experience to live in Italy and beautiful Rome. I studied the history of the city a lot at school, I have never visited it, I am very keen to see the Colosseum, the ancient Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill and of course the Vatican. Furthermore, I am curious to try Italian cuisine."

The club confirms Andrea Poli and Matteo Carlo Ciotti also for the next season, while greeting and thanking Michele De Robertis for these years of militancy and for his commitment, the player has communicated that for personal reasons he will not continue his experience with the lions cap.
