He is the Tsar of volleyball who conquered the world with spikes, victories and broken records. Yes, Ivan Zaytsev passed through BSMT. Born in Spoleto, with Russian roots and an Italian heart, Ivan is one of the most beloved and recognized athletes in the world. With his overwhelming spikes, unstoppable determination and a true leader personality, he won over the public on and off the court. Nicknamed the “Tsar”, he wrote history with European golds, Olympic silvers and a leading role in every team he represented. And now, in addition to continuing to play in the arenas with the MINT Vero Volley Monza jersey, he is ready to leave his mark in Beach Volleyball too, aiming straight for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics. In an intense and sincere chat, we retraced his career: from the beginning to the great victories, from the sacrifices necessary to get to the top to the privilege and weight of wearing the blue jersey. With our friends at Sector No Limits, through the story of a great champion, we have told what it means to live sport at the highest levels and always push yourself beyond your limits.
