National team player Denislav Bardarov, who joined the ranks of newcomer Grottazzolina in the Italian elite, is injured and will miss several matches, volleyweek.bg learned. The misfortune struck the outside hitter on his second training session when he suffered an ankle tear. The medical staff has estimated that the player will be absent for at least 15 days from the training process. He is expected to resume ball practice early next week, but without jumps. Normal training is likely to resume at the beginning of next month.

This means that coach Ortensi will not be able to count on our talented player in the upcoming away matches against Trento and the home match against Milano. Everyone hopes he will be available on February 16, when the important away match against Cisterna takes place in the fight to stay in the elite.
