Does anyone knows if Amin is really going to Italy somewhere? 

@PanicVB He's staying in Padova

@Genesis He is practicing with the old team while they don't have the full rosters due to world championship and the U20 european championship. 

He will go to China, but usually the league don't start until the new year or december, so he has a lot of spare time now

@Ele06 Dirlic is the main for Croatia, and was the main too for Cisterna last season after Szwarc got injured, and he did pretty well, with a really good connection with Baranowicz. Those two along with Maar were the real reason why Cisterna reached the final for the fifth place, in my opinion. 

Now Cisterna has to finish his roster, they lack an opposite, an outside and probably also a middle (it's rumored that Zingel will change nationality soon, so they could use him and one other foreigner middle). 
I know no rumors about who will be those 3 guys, but the most important in my opinion is the middle right now, both Mattei and Rossi are not Superlega level nowadays. 
A good secondary opposite and a good fourth outside may be a nice option, but also a non cheap one and I doubt that they have such money. So no Lima in Cisterna for now, which is a pity, but we will see. 

@johanneslei it seems that they are trying to reach an agreement with a chinese OH, Yu or Zhang probably. Either way, if they want to start Krick (and they probably do) Rinaldi will be the other starter, due to the foreigner limit. It's a bit of a bet, but both him and Pope are good. 

@jais Grbic did not achieve sufficient results for Sirci (Perugia's president) and he also doesn't like to have his coach to be also the head coach of a national team, Poland in particular (probably because of Heynen, who knows)

@Piter_97 Mozic renewed with Verona till 2025, and not with a chep contract; also he seems to believe in the project of a team in which he would be the superstar; I don't think he will move, not right now at least. 

Lavia and Michieletto seems even more impossible for so many reasons, happily enough.

Bednorz, I herad, has signed with Skra for the play-off phase after he returns from China. 

@aggmit let's say it's a bet. 
I like Protopsaltis, but his height can be a problem, at least in some situations. Kovar is surprisingly a good receiver as a 2 meters guy, this year in Italy he had 29% in excellent receptions, almost never playing as a starter, so he had to pass lots of difficult serves coming from the bench, probably playing the entire match he would have been even better. He is a precise and strong blocker, and he can also defend pretty well. 

And now the real bet: if he is healthy throughout the entire season he can develop quite a strong serve and can be a valid primary option as an attacker, also in out of system/high ball situations, so it would be an upgrade; if he struggles phisically, than he could also turn into a libero who can block, and not such an upgrade. 

@aggmit He has been a really good player, playing often a key rule in many championship victories for Lube. He always suffered to frequent injuries, which stopped him to be one of the best outside hitters in Europe, and in fact he often wasn't a starter for Lube; and now I'm a litte doubtful if he can be a solid starter, he is for sure still a fantastic receiver and a strong blocker, but this year his serve has been bad, and so the attacking skill seems to have dropped a bit. 

If he can stay healthy I think that he would be one of the best outsides in Greece, as I said is a strong blocker and an excellent receiver, and in his best days he was great also as a spiker, so it depends on injuries. He won't be the top scorer of the championship for sure, but Athens has Hernandez for that I think. 

@Kuba unfortunately not so much recently. I've heard weeks ago of Lucarelli, Anderson, Szalpuk, Bednorz, Russell and Lanza, but almost all of them have signed for other teams. 
Anderson, Bednorz and Russell are going to China and Japan, so they probably have high payments, but it's true that the championship is suspended. One of them could be a thing, but for now the strong rumor here south is Lanza, which is really strange

@Kuba Mozic has signed with Verona for 3 other seasons, but I understand why Zaksa is trying to reach him, he's damn good. Also Verona now has 3 outside hitters if it's true that Keita will play as a receiver and not as an opposite, but still I think Mozic would be the star of the team, so it's difficult. 

However it's kinda strange that Zaksa is having so much difficulties in finding a new player, also considering that Russia is less actractive than ever. 
For example Russell or even Jaeschke would fit nice (although neither of them is a Semeniuk-like player) I think, but both are roumored to play in China or Japan

@Kuba in Italy, I've never heard of such a rumor. Lavia, Kaziyski and Michieletto should be confirmed for the next season, so I think it would be really strange. 
I've heard of Lanza going to Polonia, Zaksa or Skra, don't know if this could be true, but sound more reasonable. Nonetheless Lavia would be surely a better replacement than Lanza.

@PawełStanisławski I really doubt it, Trento would ask too much for Zaksa, and I don't think he has ever thought to go somewhere else. 

@DimGar77 Juantorena should stay at least for one other year, he has a contract and both him and Cormio said at the end of the season that he would like to stay. 
Zaytsev too should stay, someone said that he is going away but i doubt it's true

@MirandaBhu in italian clubs there is a strange situation where everyone wants to buy Nimir, except Modena (it seems that Leal won't go, so they probably need to lower the budget in an alternative way), but nobody can convince him. For now everything could be the same as this year, but a possible scenario is also an exchange in the opposite position between nearly half of the Superlega.

Patry just had a garbage season, never really leading the team when he was needed and with heavily insufficient numbers. Milano is trying to reach the top level of the league kinda quickly, so I doubt that he could be their first choice, but they could have trouble finding a replacement 

@PawełStanisławski He was one of Piacenza's targets, but after the “kick episode” during the semi-finals they drop him. Now he has a contract with Modena for 2 other years, MV doesn't like him much (he never played extremely well, he dosen't seems such a part of the team and he is really expensive considering all this), but for what it's said on italian journals he could stay because he is way too expensive for many clubs. 
I know that Milano is trying to reach a top player, but i doubt it could be him. Monza said that they will focus, money wise, on the female team. Perugia and Lube already have their players, and also Trento, and he could be too expensive even for those 3. 

I don't know if some polish team would try to reach him, and I don't know if he would be really good in your championship. 
And he probably won't go to Russia neither, so it's like Modena or Asia, at the moment. 

@kamilcieslar1999 Thanks a lot, now it's more clear. I knew Pasini wasn't an insider type of journalist for foreigner clubs (although he is pretty good with italian ones), but this is really funny :) 

@Volleyball_it He played really well in Cisterna in November, but for like 3 matches, and since then he has not played. It would be interesting to se him in Poland, but for Zaksa could be a suicidal move… For real the best polish (and maybe european) team did not manage to engage someone more relyable? 

@kamilcieslar1999 That's interesting, thank you. I don't understand polish and google's translation was not so good, but if I understand in the blog they say that Pasini read the thoughts of random users and sometimes publish them without any check, is that correct?
