Pallacanestro Varese has completed one of the biggest signings of the Italian basketball offseason, officially bringing Italian international Amedeo Della Valle to the Openjobmetis roster. The arrival of one of the country’s top players marks a significant step forward for the club as it looks to strengthen its ambitions for the upcoming LBA season.
Following the end of his successful spell with Brescia, Della Valle became one of the most sought-after free agents on the Italian market. Several teams were reportedly interested in securing his services, but Varese ultimately convinced the experienced guard with a long-term sporting project and the opportunity to play a leading role in the team’s future.
The 1993-born shooting guard has built an outstanding reputation throughout his career thanks to his scoring ability, leadership, and experience at both domestic and international level. A regular member of the Italian national team, Della Valle is widely regarded as one of the premier offensive talents in Serie A, capable of changing the course of a game with his shooting and clutch performances.
Varese’s management views the signing as a cornerstone for the club’s rebuilding process. General Manager Zach Sogolow highlighted Della Valle’s winning mentality, professionalism, and veteran leadership as key qualities that will help elevate the entire roster both on and off the court.
The agreement, reportedly a multi-year deal, underlines the commitment from both player and club to build a competitive project capable of challenging in Italy and making an impact in European competition.
With Della Valle now in red and white, Openjobmetis sends a clear message to the rest of the league. The club is determined to return to the upper tier of Italian basketball, and this high-profile acquisition could prove to be one of the defining moves of the 2026 summer transfer window.
