As OK Financial Group and Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance gave up Leo and Yosvani side by side, the possibility of wearing uniforms to other teams has increased.
While the second day of the 2024 Korea Volleyball Federation (KOVO) men's tryout, which has been underway in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), has been completed since the 9th, only one contractor is Andres Villena (KB Insurance), drawing attention.
The men's team, which had a poor performance on the first day of the tryout (9th), started its warm-up match on the second day, 30 minutes earlier than the previous schedule to the NAS Sports Complex.
Saber Kazemi (26, Iran), who complained of abdominal pain, did not appear on the field even though he had an interview schedule. Mattei Kok (28, Slovenia), who accompanied Woori Card last season, also appeared on the field due to poor physical condition, but did not play in the warm-up match.
Players were divided into two groups and played a 6-6 game. Indeed, they were more aggressive on offense than on the first day. Officials from the seven clubs also made in-depth observations. Apogit Christian Walzak (23) of Poland, who received the first ranking in two clubs and the second ranking in one club in the preference survey, fell short of expectations.
Outside heater Luis Elian Estrada (24) received the most attention. Standing 201 centimeters tall, he made a strong impression with his high RBI and powerful attack. Sargent's jump also recorded 75 centimeters. Watchers say his receiving ability is somewhat disappointing, but the common view is that his offense will work well in the V-League.
After the exhibition games were over, seven teams announced to KOVO whether to renew contract with their current players. All teams made the decision one minute before the deadline. Only KB Insurance renewed its contract with Villena. OK Financial Group and Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance Co., which considered renewing contract, did not renew their contracts with Leo and Yosvani, respectively, after agonizing over the issue.
Coach Miguel Rivera of KB Insurance chose Villena, who has a good understanding of his volleyball. Rivera and Villena have teamed up together for the Spanish team.
Rivera said, "Bidenna performed well last season as well. I will help her maintain that level consistently. I trust Villena. If there was a player who was better than Villena, I would have picked him."
Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, which has a high probability of selecting the top order, may choose Yosvani. Manager Kim Sang-woo left all possibilities open, saying, "I think we have a wide range of choices."
"There was a player who was more suitable for volleyball with good skill, fighting, and spirit through the tryout," said OK Financial Group manager Ogino Masah, who did not choose Leo, the MVP of the regular league last season. "We will have a variety of players as candidates and decide in order."
On the third day, only the draft will be held without an exhibition game. The draft will take place at 8 p.m. Korean time (3 p.m. local time) on Wednesday. 카지노사이트
