Nikolov continues to be No. 1 in Italy: 400 points and leadership with a game in hand

Aleksandar Nikolov continues to lead the scoring charts in the Italian SuperLega, even though his main competitor Ferre Reggers had the opportunity to close the gap after the last round.

Allianz Milano's Belgian opposite hitter scored 17 points, but his team suffered a heavy 0:3 loss to Rana Verona, which did not allow for a significant change in the battle for first place.

Thus, Bulgarian national team player Aleksandar Nikolov (Cucine Lube Civitanova) remains at the top, continuing to lead the individual ranking by total points.

Ranking – Top Scorers

Position Player Team Matches Played Points Points/Set
1 Aleksandar Nikolov Cucine Lube Civitanova 19 400 5,56
2 Ferre Reggers Allianz Milano 20 390 5,34
3 Veljko Masulovic Padova 20 316 4,21


Nikolov maintains an impressive efficiency of 5.56 points per set, making him the most consistent scorer in the league. Reggers is close, but has played one more match, which highlights the Bulgarian's advantage in the competition.

It is particularly important to note that Nikolov has played one less match due to a suspension after receiving red cards, which means his lead could become even more convincing in his upcoming appearances.

The Bulgarian national team player, who has already established himself as the top scorer at the World Championship in the Philippines, continues to prove his class at club level.
