Sokolova
Yuriy Marichev, the head coach of Russia, admitted that he wants Lyubov Sokolova back in the national team despite her refusal to play for her country at the World Cup.
“We had conversation on this subject and I invited Lyuba to play. This is the case when the door is always open for a player. Almost everything will depend on her decision. I will accept and understand every choice that she makes,” Marichev showed flexibility for the case of outside hitter/receiver.
A 37-year-old Sokolova performed at the last five Olympics for Russia and was world champion in 2006 and 2010.
Besides cancelling to play for the national team at the World Cup, she did the same before the 2014 World Championship in Italy. Both times she claimed that a level of her physical preparation was low.
