Radostin Stoychev before the Champions League Final Four: Success is courage!

Radostin Stoychev is back on the big stage in the Champions League! 🔥

Bulgarian head coach Radostin Stoychev will lead Turkish Halkbank at the Final Four of Europe's most prestigious club tournament – the CEV Champions League, which will be held from May 16 to 18 in Łódź, Poland. 🇵🇱

Halkbank, led by Stoychev, went through a difficult season, but after eliminating Allianz Milano in the playoffs and PGE Projekt Warszawa in the quarterfinals, secured a place among the top four teams on the continent. 💪

🗣️ "We will not give up. Whatever happens, we go ready to fight," Stoychev told Anadolu Agency.
🗝️"If I had to say one word for success – that would becourage."

❗ The Bulgarian specialist recently took over Halkbank and admitted that they are unable to train with a full squad due to injuries to key players such as Micah Ma'a, Sotola, and Matić. Nevertheless, spirits remain high before the semi-final clash with the Italian giant Sir Sicoma Monini, which Stoychev described as"one of the three best teams in the world in the last 5-6 years."

🧠 Stoychev is not part of the Halkbank project for the first time – he also led the team in 2014. Now, with even more experience, his ambition is clear – to lead the team to the European summit.
