“Grankin was walking in a cast in past 11 days. He will take it off in three days. He has an easy fracture of one of the metatarsal bones of the ankle, so we decided to heal it before the Olympics. Sergey trains in the gym as much as possible, also performs the exercises with the ball so, we hope that he’ll be fine by the beginning of the Olympic Games,” said Secretary General of the Russia’s VF, Aleksandr Yaremenko.

Russia National Team will travel at Rio de Janeiro on July 28. Volleyball tournament will be held from August 6 to 21.
