As Gian Luca Pasini reported, last seasons Serie A1 playoff quarter-finalists Foppapedretti experienced some serious financial problems and their participation in the national championship for the 2017/2018 season was questionable.

But, an eight-time Italian title holders (second most successful team in Serie A history) and seven-time CEV Champions League winners (most successful Italian team in the tournament) managed to close a budget for the next season in the last moment, on a day when Italian League set a deadline for submitting applications for the 2017/18 Serie A1.
