American attacker Max Irving is reportedly on the verge of joining Italian powerhouse Pro Recco for the 2025/26 season, following two standout years with AN Brescia.
Irving, 29, has been a key figure at Brescia since arriving from Telimar in 2023. He helped the team win the Coppa Italia in 2024 and played a pivotal role in their run to the 2025 Serie A1 finals.
His potential move to Recco would add further depth to a squad that has dominated both Italian and European water polo in recent years. Recco secured their 37th Italian league title in May 2025 and will return to the LEN Champions League next season — a competition they have won a record 11 times.
Irving’s international résumé includes appearances at the Tokyo 2020 and Paris 2024 Olympics — where he won silver — as well as a gold medal at the 2023 Pan American Games. His versatility and scoring ability have made him a valuable asset for both club and country.
While official confirmation is still pending, Irving’s arrival would strengthen an already formidable Recco lineup as they look to maintain their dominance in 2025/26.
Pro Recco have already been linked with the signing of Luke Pavillard (Freemantle),Rino Buric (Jug), Alvaro Granados (CNAB) and Francisco Cassia (Ortigia).
Leaving the Pro Recco this season is Marco Del Lungo, Aaron Younger, and Ben Hallock.
