Finisher”Belogorya » and national team Russia in volleyball, Pavel Tetyukhin spoke about the possibility of changing sports citizenship.
– This outing is more suitable for individual athletes, for whom everything is at stake. We are a team sport. And if you change sports citizenship globally, then it’s a change in everything: the style of life, of life, of play. There will be no turning back. The same tennis players no longer live in Russia: Medvedev lives in France, it gives a little on the international scene, they play Grand Slams. It’s probably more about them.
Of course, I won’t judge, but in general I don’t know a single player from the Russian national teams, clubs who are ready to leave right now to change their nationality. We have a good league in this regard. It seems to me that for some time the level will definitely remain high, – Tetyukhin is quoted as saying by “Championship”.
On March 1, the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) suspended all Russian teams and clubs from participating in international competitions due to the situation in Ukraine.
