It would be great if women Italy water polo returned to the top, where volleyball is now. These 2 teams + basketball and football and maybe softball, would be a nice to see for the women's team sports in LA in 2028. https://www.instagram.com/p/DVs-BAdjPyd/?img_index=2 -

https://www.instagram.com/izachiappini She's currently playing in Roma, but I see she's 171 cm height... She's a bit short, and that's a big problem for the Italian National Team. I also don't know if there's even any talk of her returning to the Italian National Team? She is 31, which is still an age to return to play in NT. The ITA has changed head coaches, so maybe there's still a chance for a her return? There's no one left from that 2019 team, except for Roberta Bianconi. -

For me, it's nonsense –in the Italian National Team played with players from Hungary, Brazil, etc., although perhaps not at that particular time. Regarding the 2019-2021 period, it was a generational change after coach Fabio Conti times. The team was in crisis and didn't qualify for the 2021 Olympics. I don't remember what the atmosphere was like back then, but honestly, I don't remember that particular this Brazilian player in our squad. If there was a problem, it was more of a personal one. Many people from that squad are gone, but the crisis in the Italian team continues and is more of a structural one – the players are too weak physically. In my opinion, it would be advisable to naturalize someone strong to change the Italian team's power. -
From what she said, it was more like intimidation and provocation from other players because she was naturalized and was stealing a spot from a "native" Italian, if we can put it that way. -

She changed nationality in 2017; she was one of the top players in the world at the time, but then there was the story that she suffered abuse within the Italian team, something like that...

I also... I only remember Araujo. In your opinion, who could Italy naturalize in the NT for women? More likely to target South America, the Balkans, or Russia? Historically, there have also been player from Hungary- Elizabet Valkai.
