Does Eczacıbaşı Dynavit attract Bulgarian talent Iva Dudova?

Information about a potential transfer of Bulgarian young talent Iva Dudova to the Turkish grand club "Eczacıbaşı Dynavit" appeared on the specialized websitevoleybolunsesi.com, but at this moment there is no official confirmation from her Bulgarian club.

🟠⚪️ Plans for the 2026–2027 season?
According to the publication, "Eczacıbaşı Dynavit" has signed a contract with Dudova as part of squad planning for the 2026–2027 season. It is claimed that the "orange-whites" have secured the services of the Bulgarian opposite hitter, who has been defending the colors of VC Maritsa (Plovdiv) since 2020.

🇧🇬 First transfer abroad – but for now only as information
If the news is confirmed, the 20-year-old volleyball player will make her first step outside Bulgaria, with Turkey being her first foreign stop in her professional career. At this stage, however, there is no official position from either VC Maritsa or the athlete herself.

🏐 Strong resume at youth level
The volleyball player, born in 2006 with a height of 198 cm, has impressive individual accolades:

  • 🏆 U21 World Championship (2025) –Best Scorer

  • 🏆 U17 Balkan Championship (2022) –Best Opposite Hitter

  • 🏆 U16 European Championship (2021) –Best ScorerandBest Opposite Spiker

Such a transfer would be entirely logical given Dudova's development and the interest of leading European clubs in young athletes with strong physiques and scoring ability. However, until the Bulgarian club issues an official statement, the information should be considered unconfirmed.

Clarity regarding Iva Dudova's future is expected in the coming weeks.
