Alessandro Colacchi

Alessandro Colacchi finished one spot behind Cavagnola in the 2024 ProMuscle Italy Pro. He could not qualify for the 2024 Olympia but is seen by fans and experts as a competitor that could secure a 2025 spot. This is his second full year in the pro ranks.

Youcef Djoudi

Youcef Djoudi Anava participated in the 2022 Men’s Physique Olympia, placing outside the top 15. He did not participate in the 2023 Olympia or qualify in 2024. If he can replicate his 2022 form, a pro show win is possible.
