Funnily enough, Candellaro played last season for Santa Croce, which has given its rights to play in the A2 to Atripalda this summer. The newcomer finished fifth middle blocker of the season with 172 points and 92 blocks.
Meanwhile, the club also signed middle blocker Daniele Bassi, who had already wore the shirt of the club in 2009–10 before moving to the B1 division with Sorrento and Pizzo Calabro.
