Simeon Nikolov, silver medalist from the 2025 World Championship with Bulgaria, is centimeters away from a spot in the Ideal Team of the regular season in the Russian Super League. The finish line is here – and everything will be decided in the last hours.

Behind Moni are Konstantin Abaev ("Zenit-Kazan") with15%, Roman Poroshin ("Belogorie") with5%, Pavel Pankov ("Dynamo") with4%, Igor Kobzar ("Zenit") with3%and Maika Ma'a ("Fakel Yamal") with2%.

This is a battle that can be won.

The difference is completely surmountable. Only one thing is needed – mobilization in the last hours. Every vote counts. Every vote brings Moni closer to well-deserved recognition.

We are talking about a player who, at just 19 years old, dictates the pace in one of the strongest leagues in the world. About a setter who already brings class, confidence, and a future to Bulgarian volleyball.

Now is the time to show it.
