A locker room quarrel after the match with Germany took Borislava Saykova out of participation in the Nations League?

The women's national team departs today for Hong Kong, where they will play their matches from the third week of theNations League.Head coach Lorenzo Micelli made two changes to the squad. One is at the setter position, where Margarita Guncheva replaces Mirela Shahpazova. Due to health reasons, Borislava Saykova will not travel, and her place will be taken by 17-year-old middle blocker Kaya Nikolova. According to unconfirmed information, the real reason for Saykova's absence is an altercation with Miroslava Paskova in the changing room after the loss to Germany.
