Fabio Ricci, in the middle, will turn 29 on July 11th. Yet, he already seems like a veteran if you think of the many important matches he has played both in the Italian league and with the Italian national team. A palmares to be the envy of many: a Scudetto won in the 2017-2018 season, three Italian Cups, three Italian Super Cups, all with the Perugia shirt. To which is added a gold medal with the national team in 2021, a Universiade in 2019 and a European Junior Championship in 2012.
Fabio Ricci, born in Faenza, has been a player for Gas Sales Bluenergy Volley Piacenza for a few weeks now. Two year contract for him. Last season he played in Siena after five years in Ravenna with an interlude in Macerata and after five seasons that saw him as a protagonist in Perugia. Now for Ricci the experience with the Gas Sales Bluenergy Volley Piacenza shirt begins. The central player made his first statements as a player of the red and white team.
“Choosing Piacenza – underlines Fabio Ricci – was not difficult. Because I arrive in a club with high ambitions and that wants to do well, I’m marrying an important project, what I’ve always liked is training and being able to play to achieve great goals and here in Piacenza all of this is possible. They have always spoken well of this club to me and therefore I had no problem in accepting the offer that was made to me for some time”.
Vacation days for Fabio Ricci. Between his Romagna, he lives in Cotignola, and Trentino. A Romagna hit hard by the flood but which is recovering.
