Transfer Rumors & Discussion (2024/2025)

    Quote from KVB

    No, Anthi will be the most unhappy one if Stysiak goes to THY lol. If Ze remains as the coach, he will again let Bergmann stay on the court for the whole match no matter what:whistle:Anthi will be on the bench for another season if she can’t be the starting Opp, as Ze will neither bench Roberta to give the last foreigner spot on court to her.

    True indeed🤦 she shouldn't have renewed with THY after knowing ze will stay:hit:

    Marco Fantasia, Italian A1 series TV commentator, from his twitter/X account talks about a renewal of Castillo in Milano, with an offer to relaunch the one made by Scandicci, which seemed like a done deal... Scandicci seems to be closing now the deal with Nathina...

    Below is Fantasia's tweet, but I can't find the source he refers to...



    In comments Fantasia also talks about Parrocchiale: the girl is under contract and would like to stay, but Scandicci seems intent on selling her...

    Parrocchiale seems like a nice person but she simply doesn't have the level to play top 3 Italian teams 🤷 it makes much more sense for Castillo to stay in Milano, with so many top Italian players in their roster, they can let Castillo to play as starter for whole season

    An article of volleyball.it about Koslowski prolonging his contract with Dutch NT says that he was supposed to coach Scandicci, but then it turned out that he doesn't have a coaching license as required for A1, so they had to go for Antiga instead :what: I mean, how is that even possible? He's been Bundesliga coach for over 10 years (which requires the highest German coaching license) and has been coaching NTs for many years as well, what kind of license does A1 require? :white:

    THY with or without Stysiak, GS definitely will play for top 4, after signing with all mentioned players.

    According to Volleyball.it he doesn't even have the "allievo allenatore" degree. :what:

    It is the lowest degree of the coaches' cursus honorum. Basically every volleyball player has it in Italy, because in regional categories many players also coach the youth teams.

    But don't they accept coaching degrees from other countries? Certainly Antiga doesn't have an Italian license either?

    It is actually a problem that, although not common, has happened in other cases...

    In some federations the rules of coaching licenses are not perfectly aligned...

    The cases in the past that I knew of, however, almost all concerned South American coaches (Cesar Douglas, for example, when he arrived in Italy he didn't have a recognized licence) or, in any case, non-Europeans: in CEV areas it's the first case I've heard...

    Assuming that the news is correct, it seems very strange to me...

    I wonder how reliable the Brazilian account he referred to is. I do like Marco Fantasia very much but it's not a guy well known for his transfer news.

    I hope that Brenda will leave Milano. In my opinion she does not fit in this team.
