Manuel Armoa

Both his parents are connected to volleyball: his adoptive father, Fabián Armoa, is a volleyball coach and his mother Carla Morel is a former Argentina national team member. His biological father is Cuban. At CSV Qualifying Tournament to 2023 Pan American Games in Santiago de Chile, during a match between the Argentine and Chilean U23 sides, Armoa was subject to racist abuse from the audience, and a bottle was thrown at him from the stands. The game had to be briefly stopped and the Chilean team later apologized to Armoa on behalf of their country. ==Honours==
