Following the request from the Federation to get Perugia into the Challenge Cup, president Sirci said: “First of all the request from the Federation makes us extremely proud and satisfied. This is the result of all the hard work and the excellent achievement made in our first year in the serie A1. Useless to hide we would be thrilled to compete at international level, we’d be extremely proud to represent the city of Perugia. In the next few days, we will carefully analyse the situation with our sponsors to understand if we can respond positively”.
