Exiles president Andrew Paris confirmed that former Italian internationals Alessandro Velotto and Guillermo Molina Rios are the club‘s chosen foreign players for the forthcoming summer.
The announcement was made during a sponsorship presentation with club partners Welbee’s held at the club‘s premises in Sliema.
During the news conference, president Paris said that both Velotto and Molina are playing in the highest levels of the Italian Serie A, with Pro Recco and Quinto respectively.
Whereas for Velotto this is his first experience in Malta, Guillermo Molina, who has also represented the national team of Spain, will be playing in Malta for the fourth time.
During the sponsorship presentation, Welbee’s CEO Jonathan Shaw explained that this three-year agreement between his company and Exiles is part of the company‘s vision to support various sports entities, and Exiles fits into this vision as a family-oriented club striving to maintain its position amongst the top teams on the island.
Shaw also mentioned that Welbee‘s are one of the partners of Games for the Small States of Europe being held in Malta this coming May.
On his part, president Paris thanked Welbee‘s for choosing Exiles as their partner in Aquatic Sports and explained that this support will go in no small way to help the club bring over foreign players of the calibre of Molina and Velotto, who will also be involved in the coaching of the club‘s junior players.
