Riccardo Tavernelli remains at Derthona: agreement extended until 2021/22
Bertram Yachts Derthona announces that it has reached an agreement for the extension of the athlete Riccardo Tavernelli, who will wear the black and white jersey until 2022.
Having arrived in Tortona in the summer of 2019, Tavernelli was among the protagonists of the conquest of the LNP 2019 Old Wild West Super Cup, which came following the 84-81 victory in the final against Reale Mutua Torino at the end of a journey made up of six successes in as many meetings. In the event Tavernelli scored 8.2 points and 4 assists per game.
Riccardo then wore the number 8 jersey on fourteen occasions (six victories) in the West Group of the Serie A2 Old Wild West championship, finishing with 7 points and 3.9 assists on average in 25 minutes of use per game.
Now he is preparing to start his second consecutive season with the Bertram Yachts Derthona jersey.
ʺI embraced the Tortona project last year, believing in the club's ambitions – the words of Riccardo Tavernelli, Juventus playmaker – and when it was proposed to continue and extend I immediately accepted, meeting the needs of the company and finding a new agreement. Next year we will need to have a high-level championship, given the club's ambitions. Personally, I felt comfortable in the city and in this period I had the opportunity to get to know and strengthen the relationship with the fans and the peopleʺ.
