The third week of preparation for Sir Safety Susa Perugia began yesterday.
It opened with an extra membership after captain Wilfredo Leon arrived in Perugia last weekend. The number 9, who appeared in good shape, therefore began his work together with the staff and teammates present to continue the recovery after the knee operation and to be fit for the start of the season.
“I am happy to be back here in our home. I feel very good, I am happy to be in Perugia and I am in the condition that the club expected. Now we just have to wait for the start of the season and show all the work I have done in these two months of rehabilitation “.
Yes, Leon went through a difficult and demanding period after the operation.
“Let’s say it was a summer of” vacation-not-vacation “because it is true that I didn’t go to the national team, but I basically just worked at home to get back to the best conditions as quickly as possible. I thank all those who have been close to me, I thank God who kept me strong in the days when I woke up doubtful, I thank my family who put up with me in the most complicated moments. But I always had faith that I would come back strong ”.
The captain of the Sir has already had the opportunity to confront Andrea Anastasi.
“Yes, I met Andrea, we initially spoke two words in Polish, but then in Italian (Leon smiles, editor’s note). I had a very good impression, he was very clear on the work to be done and on some small changes that are right and appropriate to his game system. I too will have to change two or three things and by working out in the gym we will show that these changes have been the right choice for the team ”.
Leon gives the Juventus fans a very specific appointment.
“I have no doubts that I will be able to play from the first to the last game and that I will be ready for the start of the season. I’m waiting for everyone on 2 October for the first of the championship here at PalaBarton and I’m sure I’ll be on court”.
