When you have so many world-class aces on your roster, it is logical that many clubs want to hire some of them. And it is also logical that you want to keep most of them. The transfer policy of Italian men’s volleyball champions Cucine Lube Civitanova will balance between these two intentions at the end of the season.

Giuseppe Cormio, the sports director of Lube, has spoken to volleyball.it on the moves SuperLega UnipolSai titleholders will make in the upcoming transfer market window.

“There are so many rumors that are the result of making up. The important thing is that every player gives its maximum on the floor.  Our priority is renewals. We are close to extending the contract with Sokolov and Christenson. I would say that Grebennikov is certain since we are waiting for signals from his attorney. Candellaro has our proposal in front of him but he is weighing his options,” Cormio stated.

“Furthermore, we will have to decide what to do with Sander, who has been struggling with injuries, by April. So, we still have a few months to activate or not the option for the second year regarding the American. It is normal for Lube to create own market moves but it is also clear there are those watching closely what’s going on in our environment in order to make their moves. I refer, for example, about Juantorena. There are so many rumors circulating about him but he has chosen to stay,” sports director of Lube added.

By saying this, Cormio indirectly confirmed he had an option of trading Juantorena for Wilfredo León on the table.
