A long and sometimes exciting story with Cristian Savani’s transfer in the foreground came to an end. The Italian outside-hitter did not changed his mind refusing offers from few European clubs and signed a contract in Chinese megalopolis, Shanghai.

Different clubs, various scripts and a lot of money. All these factors was ruling in the story titled: “Cristian Savani’s adventures on the labour market 2013“. If the book came into existence, you could have read there a few pages of negotiations with Russian and Turkish teams, then some appreciable material about lucrative proposition from China and finally about tempting from Calzedonia Verona side. But it is already October and it is high to write the last chapter of the story called “Savani officially in China”.    

Yes! The Italian finally leaves Lube Banca Macerata after four-year stay there and his homeland  signing a contract in China. Cristian Savani is going to put on the jersey of Fujian University of Shanghai next season.   

Cristian Savani is another player well known from European Leagues, which moved to the Far East. The Chinese direction also has been chosen by Wout Wijsmans (Belgium/Italy), Mikko Oivanen (Finland), Dallas Soonias (Canada) or David Lee (USA).
