Now that Russell and De Cecco have joined the team, coach Castellani will be able to try new schemes and new alternatives. And with the SuperLega team of Molfetta hosts of the club on Friday and Saturday, the group will be seriously put to the test. Molfetta can boast some top quality players like their two Cuban stars: setter Hierrezuelo and outside hitter Hernandez. Their roster also counts the Brazilian De Barros and young Italian talent Randazzo. Surely two important valuable days for Perugia.

Meanwhile, the team will be welcomed by the local authorities in the Perugia town hall on Wednesday morning, while the official team presentation dedicated to the fans will take place on Thursday afternoon.
