Thirty-three-year-old native of Ljubljana, the Slovenian setter arrives at the court of Andrea Anastasi and completes the lifting department of the Block Devils. A lot of experience, a lot of quality, a great desire to do well: all this is the new Juventus signing: “I’ve always looked for such an experience. Playing with the best players in the world, working with the best coaches, playing in front of the best fans and for a club with the organization that Perugia can offer you is something I’ve always wanted.

Right from the youth squads, Ropret proudly defends the colors of the Slovenian national team, one of the best on a continental level, with great results.
