Sir Safety Susa Perugia officially announced the signing of Japanese star Yuki Ishikawa for the next two seasons. Ishikawa will bolster the team’s strong lineup alongside stalwarts Kamil Semeniuk and Oleh Plotnytskyi. Ishikawa reunites with coach Angelo Lorenzetti, marking a nostalgic return since his first Italian stint under Lorenzetti’s guidance in Modena during the 2014/2015 season.
Ishikawa, a pivotal figure in Japanese national volleyball and a globally recognized player, expressed his excitement about joining Perugia, a team he described as “perfect” for him.
Now 28 years old, Ishikawa brings a wealth of experience and skill to Perugia, having played in Italy since he was 19. With previous seasons in Latina, Siena, Padova, and Milano, his growth in the sport has been both rapid and impressive, earning him a spot among the world’s elite outside hitters.
