The first official moment of Santos De Souza Ricardo Lucarelli’s career, bronze medalist at the recent World Cup, was held this morning in the PalabancaSport press.
At the table of the speakers present – with the player Santos De Souza Ricardo Lucarelli – Emilia Lisdero brand manager of Raspini S.p.A. new entry in the Gas Sales Bluenergy Volley Piacenza Business Community, Giuseppe Bongiorni Vice President of Gas Sales Bluenergy Volley Piacenza and Lorenzo Bernardi first coach of Gas Sales Bluenergy Volley Piacenza.
Coach Lorenzo Bernardi talks about the championship.
“Perugia is the number one favorite for the Scudetto – he underlines – but as we have already seen in the past, the favorite does not always win. In the last three years she was the favorite for everything but has never won the Scudetto or the Champions League. We have important players, we have to become a team, we have been working together for a few days and at the beginning we will not be at our best but I am counting on the skills of the individuals, on the determination of each one to make up for the lack of match rhythm and chemistry. We must not get excited for two consecutive wins or even depressed for two consecutive defeats ”.
Ricardo Lucarelli smiles. He’s in his third season in Italy, he’s on his third different team in Italy.
“I hope to stay here for a long time – he underlined – I arrived a few days ago but I am already very well in this group, they talked with Simon for a long time and he convinced me to come, so we also talked a lot with Leal and he is here with us . The team is strong, even among the young people there is a lot of talent, I hope to bring some experience and joy. Perugia is the favorite for the Scudetto but last year it was shown that the favorites don’t always win ”.
Lucarelli then spoke about his calf injury that he accused at the World Cup.
“I am better, I walk well and I already do exercises in the gym while last week I was struggling to walk. We are working well with the doctor and physiotherapist, I hope to be ready soon to be able to play. The team is very aggressive right from the bat but also quite balanced, we can do well if we soon become a group ”.
