The Cuban-born star Wilfredo León appeared at Poland national team grouping in the city of Zakopane dressed in the outfit of his future teammates who are preparing for the World Championship in Italy and Bulgaria on September 9-30. Actually, he joined the training of Poland and exchanged some thoughts with the head coach Vital Heynen.
Recall that León owns a Polish passport since 2015 when Polish Volleyball Federation (PZPS) started the battle to secure him to play for the national team. These efforts borne fruit last year and the outside hitter will be able to compete for Poland from July 24, 2019.
