Seven professional men’s volleyball clubs have selected foreign players to influence farming this year.
The Korean Volleyball Federation (KOVO) held the 2023 male foreign player draft in Turkey, Istanbul on the 8th.
In this draft, a face-to-face tryout (selection test) was held for the first time in four years, and the skills of the players were directly checked and selected. From 2020 to 2022, it was held in a non-face-to-face manner in the aftermath of the Corona 19 pandemic.
‘Practically No. 1’ Yosubani, V-League ‘comeback’ after 3 years
OK Financial Group obtained the first nomination right through a bead lottery, but Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, which obtained the second nomination right after renewing the contract with Leonardo Leyva Martinez (Cuba, registered name Leo), actually exercised the first nomination right.
Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance chose Yosbani Hernandez (Cuba/Italy). After joining OK Financial Group in the 2018-2019 season and making his first connection with the V-League, Yosbani is a “career” who played for Hyundai Capital in the 2019-2020 season and Korean Air in the 2020-2021 season.
Yosubani, who contributed to Korean Air’s unified victory, played in Spain, China, and Italy, and returned to the V-League after three years wearing a Samsung Fire & Marine uniform this time.
Hyundai Capital, which unfortunately finished runner-up last season, obtained the 5th place nomination and nominated Ahmed Iqbairi (Libya), a’Middle East Express’ who played for Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance in the 2022-2023 season. 카지노사이트
Ikbairi had high expectations that he was nominated first in the foreign player draft last season, but the renewal of the contract failed as Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, which had severe ups and downs and fell to the bottom of the men’s division, began to reorganize its power. However, he challenged the tryout again and was selected by Hyundai Capital, changed his uniform, and will continue to play an active role in the V-League next season.
Woori Card, which won the 6th pick, nominated Matei Kok (Slovenia), the only player with no experience in the V-League. Woori Card seems to have recruited an outside heater, Kok, to fill the vacancy of Na Gyeong-bok, who obtained qualification as a free agent and transferred to KB Insurance.
