Bulgarian international Aleksandar Nikolov leads the scorers' ranking in the Italian Serie A1 for the 2025/2026 season. The outside hitter of Cucine Lube Civitanova is the highest-scoring volleyball player in the league after all matches played so far, demonstrating consistency and leadership qualities in one of the most competitive leagues in the world.
The statistics are provided by Lega Volley Serie A and represent the current ranking as of the last played match. It includes all matches from the start of the season, as well as matches that some teams played earlier than scheduled.
The reason for the discrepancy in the number of matches is related to the rearranged calendar " the postponed Supercup date and Perugia's upcoming participation in the FIVB Club World Championship. That's why, for example, Perugia already has two more matches, which is reflected in the overall statistics.
