Volero Le Cannet signed 18-year-old Turkish international

Volero Le Cannet, where Ivan Petkov is the head coach, acquired 18-year-old Turkish international Bianca İleda Mumcular. She comes from the newcomer to the Turkish women's elite, Zeren Spor Kulubu, with whom she has yet to play an official match. The young athlete will likely fill the void created at the outside hitter position after the departure of Russian Alina Popova. On the 23rd, Volero hosts league leaders Nantes at home, and for now, the team from the French Riviera is in 10th position, after their 2:3 loss to Chamalières.
