2020 / 2021 Transfer Rumors & Discussion (Female)

  • Zivkoviç was playing just fine in Kaliningrad! I am surprised they signed with Dijkema instead of her. Maybe she get an offer from a better club than Kaliningrad? I agree that she is not the most creative setter but neither is Dijkema. Besides, I think Zivkoviç is a great server and blocker

  • I've never been such a fan of Zivkovic, mostly for not being creative, but she's damn fine especially now and for Russian league.


    She may not be the most entertaining setter in the world but she does her job very well, definitely prefer her over Dijkema, I guess she just received an offer from a better team.

  • So, it looks like Britt Herbots (OH, BE), Sara Bonifacio MB, ITA) and C. Bosetti (OH ,ITA) to Novara are all done deals. It will be really interesting to watch them in the same team.

    And Washington is coming to.

    And Hancock, Sansona and Christina are staying



    To bad 3 great MBs, and one will be wasting her time on the bench.

  • Novara would be great with Herbots, Bosetti, Smarzek, Hancock, Sansonna, Washington and Christina. Ofc not Imoco wise but good balanced team with great reception and defence.

    For sure great team to watch, and pretty sure that they can make nice impact at CL.


    I mean they can even surprise Conegliano, both Bosetti and Herbots were lead player in there teams. Only if Smarzek can comeback to her old form but now She will have help from every side and She loves fast system.

    And they have great coach.


    Can't wait to see how will they perform.

  • I think she was just overused. She played every single match in VNL, f6, ECH, OG qualies and got over 50 balls in each match. It is too much, she could rest in some matches for sure. I think now she has free holidays she will be ready for the season.

  • alsmeier(OH) von Muenster nach Schwerin?

    That would be a really nice transfer!

    You literally rewrote what I just said:lol:

    If VNL happens this year, I expect Poland with the strongest lineup (Wołosz, Smarzek, Zaroslinska, Mędrzyk).

  • Daalderop is leaving from Italy. I think she is ready for top Turkish teams.


    Hande-Nika duo would be cool or Gui might use Gabi-Nika-Bartch trio and let Ebrar leave.

    Hande-nika duo would be a big liability at reception line. I prefer Gabi-nika instead. She is a good prospect, it would be nice to see her in Turkey:super:

    Is it sure she will leave Italy? I think there is a big possibility she does, because all the top teams in Italy have enough offensive outside hitters. The only option I see is maybe Busto, but they aren't building a strong team...


    I don't think Hande - Nika duo would work, because both aren't the best receivers.

    If Bartsch will leave Vakifbank, there could be a possibility Nika will replace her. Already last year Vakifbank wanted Daalderop, but the buy out clause was to high.


    Anyway I would love to see her play next to Gabi with Ognjenovic as a setter!:love:Next to that she can learn a lot from Guidetti.

  • Really? I had no idea 😍 I really like Nika and want to see her in Turkey but Turkish League is a wild scene where you feel extreme pressure all the time and it does not always benefit the young, promising players. If she can take it in her advantage, she sure will learn a lot from Gio and become a better player. I hope she will do whatever she thinks it is best for her.
