(ANSA) – BOLOGNA, 14 JUL – She is a promising young basketball player in her country of origin, Ukraine, and has been in Italy for about a year to follow her passion and play in a club in Ferrara, Vis 2008. He is 16 years old and has recently been called up for the under 16 European championship which is held in Bulgaria with his national team in August. But until he gets legal protection from the juvenile court, he won’t be able to leave.

The case is reported by the lawyer Massimo Cipolla, who assists the young man and the Ferrara-based company. The lawyer has been active for some time to open the protection to allow the young Ukrainian to follow his own sports and educational path, planned with the family. The boy arrived in Ferrara on 20 July 2021, with regular parental authorization. Today the request for the appointment of the guardian is pending before the Juvenile Court of Bologna and “it has become even more urgent to have a decision because the Ukrainian basketball federation has summoned him for the under 16 European championship which this year is held in Sofia in August “, explains the lawyer.

The club, adds the president of Vis 2008, Filippo Bertelli “would be delighted to let him leave for the European championship because this is the right culmination of the work that the club carries out with the boys”, but specifies “until the moment in which the Juvenile Court will not give us the decision on the protection we can do nothing “. The appeal of the lawyer and the company, therefore, is that the situation can be unblocked as soon as possible. (HANDLE).
