The injuries of Matteo Spagnolo and Gabriele Procida (while the presence of Simone Fontecchio is in doubt) suggest that the national coach Gianmarco Pozzecco could make the decision to call up the “elder” Marco Belinelli for the pre-Olympic at the beginning of July. A question to this effect was asked to the interested party on Discovery+ microphones. His words.
“I’m pleased to hear my name associated with the national team, but we also have to be honest: the national team group is a good group already created, so I don’t know if my presence could bring something positive or negative. At the moment there are other priorities in my life, not that the national team isn’t one because I have always given so much importance to the blue, but I am the father of two little girls and after a very long season in which many matches are played between the championship and Euroleague, I need rest, I need to do my things and be with my family, I need to do my training so I can start the season again with Virtus in a positive way so at the moment it’s difficult for me to answer but it’s complicated.”
