Five-a-side football, Serie B. Matteo Olleia is the new coach of Virtus Libera.

Young, successful, and—despite his age—already boasting an impressive resume. Matteo Olleia is the new coach of Virtus Libera and will lead the green-and-whites into the upcoming Serie B national five-a-side football championship. Olleia is a name familiar to sports fans and futsal enthusiasts on the island: last season, he led Formia, who were playing in the same group as Libera, to promotion to Serie A/2. Olleia's professional career began with Real Terracina, where he played a key role, both as coach and player, in their ascent from Serie C/2 to Serie B in just four years.

Then came the arrival in Formia and the double leap from Serie C1 to Serie A2. In short, a coach with winning DNA, on whom the partnership of presidents Mattera and Castaldi has decided to focus, also with the intention of paving the way for a new era. "It was quite easy for me to choose Virtus Libera," explains Olleia. "From the first discussions with the management, I sensed their desire to do well and their professionalism. I don't like making promises, but I will work to ensure that Libera can continue its consolidation, which has led it to play a leading role in Serie B in recent years, as well as proving itself to be a virtuous force in five-a-side football."

While Matteo Olleia doesn't hide his satisfaction at choosing the island, Gigi Mattera and Francesco Castaldi are also on the same wavelength: "The results achieved so far speak for the new coach. He's a winner, and we're confident he'll bring to Virtus Libera the mentality and work ethic that have distinguished him in the more or less recent past. Choosing someone like Olleia also represents the club's determination to continue our growth."

The two presidents then recognized the great merits of Coach Di Costanzo: "He has not only contributed to our results and successes, shaping a team capable of achieving historic goals, but has once again demonstrated the commitment, professionalism, and dedication that are renowned. He has instilled a new mentality in Virtus Libera, projecting it into a different and ambitious dimension. This is why his name will remain engraved in the club's annals." Meanwhile, the club is also very active on the transfer market, and the first signings will be announced in the coming days.
