In the men’s and women’s Volleyball Superleague, clubs are entitled to register a maximum of two foreign players.
– In Russian volleyball for many years the same limit of legionnaires. Would an increase in the number of foreigners help Russian clubs become more competitive in Europe or Russian volleyball in general?
– The current rules of the Russian championship are giving results. This also applies to the Russian men’s team, which has something to boast about in terms of results in international competitions, and to our clubs. It means we are moving in the right direction,” Alekno told .
