Today Heynen announced wide roster for WCH:

Opps: Łukasz Kaczmarek, Dawid Konarski, Bartosz Kurek, Damian Schulz

OHs: Bartosz Bednorz, Tomasz Fornal, Michał Kubiak, Bartosz Kwolek, Artur Szalpuk, Aleksander Śliwka

MBs: Mateusz Bieniek, Karol Kłos, Jakub Kochanowski, Piotr Nowakowski, Łukasz Wiśniewski

Libero: Damian Wojtaszek, Paweł Zatorski, Michał Żurek

I don't know what to think about it after he announced 14 players to be preparing for the rest of the season

There is Kłos on this roster and this is the most confusing for me. All of them will be preparing or this is for FIVB only?

Display More

This needed to be done for the protocol or sth procedural for the FIVB

Preparing for WCH and playing frendlies before them will be

S: Drzyzga, Łomacz

OPP: Schulz, Konarski, Kurek

OH: Kubiak, Szalpuk, Kwolek, Śliwka

MB: Bieniek, Kochanowski, Nowakowski

L: Zatorski, Wojtaszek

+ Fornal but he's only there to help the team.

Teppan (OPP) joins Skra Bełchatów to replace Romać

It's so weird, cause end under Antiga was so messy, and I trully hoped that Fefe will fix some things, but now our crisis seems bigger and bigger, and Fefe seems not having idea what to do with it. I asked after Poland v USA why Kłos was benched whole polish WL tournament. And Fefe said that he didn't needed MB substitution, when our youngsters were not blocking at all. Drzyzga is different case and it's hard to comment it without swearing. I seriously hoped that Drzyzga/Łomacz and Komenda will play at the WL.
Rumor has it that there will be no calling up Wrona/Możdżonek/Nowakowski to EuroVolley. Possibile is the return of Łukasz Wiśniewski.

Yes, but after Szalpuk departure there are two OH spots free one for Katić/Penchev and one more

It seems that the one will be taken by Milad Ebadipour

Skra's rooster seems to be closed. Question is between Penchev (Rozalin was rumoured to join Chaumont) or Katić, and another OH (I have no idea who it will be)

According to Modena local press now Modena want's 180t Euros for the cartellino of Piano so Verona is far away, as they wanted 120 earlier and it was way to much. They offered him new two year deal and he said no for it, so the situation is complicated as there is no more MB spots in Italian top teams.

Miłosz Hebda (OH) from Gdańsk to Castellana Grotte

How about Jovovic?

He will change clubs and propably the leauge

Worth to add
This NT camp will have on it's program Poland v Belgium friendlies
19 may and 20 may open to public in Arena Legionowo
But I don't remember the hours. You have to check by yourself

Yes I mean Skra new coach. It was said that Kurek waits with the signature on his new contract till the arrival of the new coach. He goes to Turkey so I'm assuming he does not like the idea of new coach. He would have stayed under Daniel Castellani.

According to turkish voleybolplus Kurek is rumored to join Ziraat Bankasi Ankara as OH despite having 1+1 contract ready to sign at the table. He supposed to wait for the new coach so I guess he does not like the new one (we still don't know who it will be)

Maurice Torres (OPP) from Ravenna to ZAKSA

According to Przegląd Sportowy Nowakowski and Włodarczyk are not invited to first NT meeting in Spała
Also they will soon have to give Kochanowski back to juniors

Medei (new Lube coach) is vice under Blengini rule applies also to him, but still they have a year to adjust

Wlazły is will be, was, and is the main problem of Skra
Penchev had good second half of the season, but Skra had to deal with the opposite disappearing after 20th point of every important match. And despite that Uriarte setting him the balls.
In my opinion the way that gave ZAKSA gold is good sumup of Wlazły season...

As far as I know Sirci sometimes pays them for their journeys...

During the first Scudetto match Colantoni & Lucchetta (RAI commentators) said that Kovar period in NT is propably over. His health is not good enough to play 12 months constantly so he is not called.
Juantorena resting out this year is also predictable. He had a lot of episodes dealing with crumps on his legs during the league game. I remember one when he was so feeling so badly during the 4th set and tie break that my whole twitter was full of posts - Blengini stop joking bench him like now!
Bira when I was talking with him during F6 in Cracov last year was considering retiring from NT so...

I belive that they want to just do the World Leauge as the search for the new talents
Holt during Q&A at his twitter said that he will not be playing in the World Leauge this year

Mika has health problems (knee). He didn't play whole season because of it and despite he played at the end of league, he need time to recover. There is possibility that he won't play even in ECH.

I hope Drzyzga will play better and better, because he is good and has possibilities. I don't believe too much in Kowal's coaching so maybe thanks to De Griorgi we will see much better Fabian.

My biggest hope is Muzaj as Opp, he has huge possibilities.

Muzaj unfortunately had not so bad technique but during this season in Jastrzębie he regressed to jump high and hit hard. His efficency was based mostly on that factor because he is the highest jumping opp in the leauge

Um

Rumors about Kovacevic in Trento, but there is the problem he has another year (I think) of contract with Verona...

Also rumors about Lyneel in Verona. For me it would be a good duo with the Americans (sorry I don't remember how to spell his name ^^), if Kovacevic will go.

Um according to local Verona press Lyneel is the first backup option if Kovacević will go
Djurić will stay and as for the setter they will choose between Baranowicz, Jovović and Spirito
Baranowicz is rumored to have an offer from Piacenza but he states that he knows about that from the media speculations
