One of the biggest stars of the Asian women’s volleyball, Kim Yeon-Koung, returned to play in her homeland after more than a decade!

South Korean media reported that the country’s “Female Volleyball Emperor”, Kim, agreed to terms with the last official national championship winners, the Heungkuk Life Pink Spiders. The signature of a 32-year-old outside hitter with the Incheon team is only a matter of formality.

“The details of the contract haven’t been decided yet. We are preparing to meet again at the weekend. When the contract is completed, we’ll officially announce it,” the Pink Spiders official said.

Last time the South Korea National Team captain competed in her homeland was in 2008/09 and it was exactly in the jersey of the club for which she’s about to sign. Kim became a free agent after her contract with Turkey’s Eczacıbaşı VitrA expired less than a month ago. If the one-time CEV Champions League MVP officially returns to the Pink Spiders, the maximum salary she can receive is about 540,000 US dollars annually.

Earlier, the information about her departure to China appeared, but it seems it’s no longer the current story.
