The defending CEV Cup champions Vero Volley Monza continues to become stronger for the upcoming season announcing the arrivals of some international stars, the club also holds their elites in their squad by
extending their contracts.

While the MVP of the CEV Cup last year, promising Belarusian talent Vlad Davyskiba will continue to wear the Monza’s jersey next season, the team also officially announced another elite player for the outside hitter
position: the experienced Canadian Stephan Maar joins the squad for one year. He has played in several clubs in Italy so far and won a gold medal with Allianz Milano in the CEV Challenge Cup 2020-2021.

Another Canadian in the team will be Arthur Szwarc. Monza announced the 1995-born opposite to complete this rotation. With his previous team, Top Volley Cisterna, Szwarc finished the Italian Serie A1 league at the 6th position last season.

With a respected career, the German opposite won one CEV Champions League Volley, two CEV Cups, one CEV European Golden League, and one FIVB Club World Championship titles up to this point.
