The president of Perugia surprises everyone with Nikola Grbic. He revealed what made him change his mind

After several months of intense negotiations, the Polish Volleyball Federation selected the selectors and volleyball players. They were respectively Nikola Grbić and Stefano Lavarini. However, the efforts to obtain the first of them were particularly interesting.

From the very beginning of his term of office, the president of the PZPS emphasized that he would see a Serb in this position. The problem, however, was that he was already employed by the Italian Sir Safety Perugia, whose president Gino Sirci did not want to agree to the departure of the coach.

A surprising change in the position of the president of Perugia. “I should be happy”

Now it turns out, however, that Sirci has changed his mind and has agreed that Grbić will combine work in the club with the Polish national team. This is quite a diametric change of approach, because until recently Italy was quite strongly opposed to such a solution. – I made it clear to him: I say that the fight in Serie A and the Champions League is too demanding to lead Perugia and the Polish national team at the same time and effectively. I’m sure about this – .

Now, however, Gino Sirci participated in an interview with the portal, in which he admitted that he was even happy that Grbić would take over the Polish national team. – I wanted to work exclusively with Grbic. However, he decided that he wanted to become the coach of the Polish national volleyball team. It was not my first plan, but it is his choice and I must accept it. I decided to look at it from the other side. As the club owner, I should be glad that the Serb is so in demand – admitted the Italian.

– I believe Nikola that he will be focused on working for our club. He promised to focus on it as if it were his only “job”. I trust him. Plus, I didn’t want to upset him by mentioning again and again that I didn’t like the prospect of splitting my time into two teams. I knew she wanted it so badly. Lorenzo Bernardi and Andrea Giani also sent applications for the competition. I’m glad my trainer won with them. I’m proud! added the president of Sir Safety Perugia.
