Sir Safety Susa Perugia completes the central department and announces the signing for next season of Davide Candellaro who will compose, with the confirmed Russos, Flavio è Solè, a formidable battery of three places available to coach Lorenzetti.
It was a long tour of the boot that brought Candellaro, 34 years old a few days ago, under the vaults of the PalaBarton. A tour that the native of Padua begins in the number one youth sector in Italy, that of Sisley Treviso. Then the leap into volleyball for the “grown-ups” in the 2009-2010 season in Taranto in the Superlega. After three seasons in Serie A2 in Reggio Emilia, Santa Croce and Atripalda, Candellaro returns to the top flight in Latina. Two years in Molfetta, from 2014 to 2016, mark the definitive explosion of Davide who then wears the shirts of Civitanova, Trento and Piacenza before the last two years in Vibo with last season in A2 triumphant with the conquest of the A2 Super Cup, A2 Italian Cup and promotion to the Superlega.
For Candellaro, central 200 cm. expert, skilled in the first half and above all very good at reading and blocking technique, the numbers speak and so does the bulletin board where, among other things, a Scudetto, an Italian Cup, a Club World Cup and a Cev Cup shine. All this without forgetting the 50 appearances accumulated for the national team from 2016 onwards by taking part in the World Cup in 2018, the VNL, the European Championships and the World Cup in Japan in 2019.
Candellaro recounts his feelings for the agreement reached with the company of the president Sirci.
“I immediately thought that Perugia’s call had to be exploited. In recent years I have experienced various important situations, with many joys but also difficult moments. Everything in sport is needed to grow as an athlete and as a person and I see this arrival in Perugia as a personal litmus test to see if the past moments have really allowed me to mature and improve”.
Davide in Perugia finds again coach Lorenzetti he had as coach in the two-year period in Trento.
“I know Perugia from the outside, I can’t say that I really know the environment and in fact I can’t wait to do it from the inside. The players and the coach, on the other hand, I know them well. Some guys have been my former teammates in the past, I think the coach is the one who left me the most of all the ones I’ve had, who allowed me to improve and who changed me as a player and as a person. Having him back on the bench is a lot of stuff.”
Candellaro is an expert athlete and knows well what the seasonal ambitions are.
“We all know that ours is the championship with the highest competitiveness ever, in which you can never spend a quiet Sunday.
