TUR M: Grbic in Ankara

by WoV

Nikola Grbic who will celebrate his 40th birthday on September 6 is still playing volleyball, many people say: “Like never before”. He is like a vine and because of that he is always on market. This year he played Final Four CEV Champions League in Omsk (Russia) with Cuneo and took silver medal.

Since 2009 he’s playing for Bre Banca Lannutti CUNEO and after four great seasons he will change the club.

The first offer came from Ankara (TUR), probably from Ziraat Bankasi. He still didn’t sign because in this moment he is playing semi-finals in Serie A in Italy. First match will be today (April 11th at 20,30) against Itas Diatec TRENTINO.
