Early life

After their arrival, the brothers were often short of money but were helped out by several people, including a nun from a church in Turin and Fabrizio Fanucci. Voinea was working with a tennis coach Alberto Castellani, who allowed him to train in Perugia for free as a personal guest.^[5]
