Sir Susa Vim Perugia announces the renewal for another three seasons with Simone Giannelli. President Sirci lands a great coup and locks down the control room of the Block Devils by handing over the keys of the team to the Juventus setter and the Italian national team until 2027.
Great satisfaction from the entire corporate entourage for a strongly desired renewal, indicative of the renewed ambitions of Sir Susa Vim Perugia also in the coming seasons and which lays a fundamental stone for the future of the team.
“There is a lot of satisfaction with the extension of the contract with Simone for another three years,” says Juventus president Gino Sirci. “We are talking about a great player who has always had a high performance with us in recent seasons and who gives us many guarantees for the future. And then we are also talking about a very good guy, we have great respect for Simone both from a technical and human point of view.”
For three years, protagonist under the vaults of the PalaBarton, Simone Giannelli has conquered everyone in Perugia. For his volleyball skills certainly, but also for his charisma, for his moral qualities and for the education and respect he has always shown towards anyone who passes by Pian di Massiano.
Twenty-seven years old last August, 124 appearances in the Sir Susa Vim shirt in two and a half seasons, 2 Italian Super Cups, 2 Italian Cups and 2 Club World Cups, the titles so far in the Block Devils shirt. These are Simone’s black and white numbers, also won by Perugia. From society, from the environment, from the fans and from the city that loves to live to the full.
Feelings that can be perceived in the words of the Juventus director regarding the agreement reached:
“I am very satisfied and very happy to have renewed with Perugia, a club that always has great ambitions. I hope that together we will be able to gain further great satisfaction and that we will be able to reach other new goals.”

In short, can we talk about Perugia as Simone’s second home?
“Well, Perugia is part of my life now – concludes Giannelli – and it will also be part of it in the future so I would say it can fit in”.
