The arrival of the opposite Adis Lagumdzija, fresh from two qualifying matches for the European Championship 2026 with his Turkey, completes the staff of Cucine Lube Civitanova on the eve of the joint training session scheduled for tomorrow, Wednesday 4 September (5.45 pm), with the Smartsystem Essence Hotels Fano at the Eurosuole Forum. The red and white attacker professes to be ready to take the field and face the first seasonal tests with his teammates. The mood is high because after the disappointment in the match against Denmark, lost in three sets at the end of very tight partials (23-25, 23-25, 25-27) away, despite Lagumdzija’s 17 seals, the prompt redemption in Ankara against Hungary thanks to notable forcing and a flash success (25-11, 25-10, 25-17) with an excellent performance and 14 points from Adis.
Adis Lagumdzija: “I come from a tough match, lost in the sprint of the individual sets, and from a very positive match that keeps the games open for Turkey’s qualification for Euro 2026. I’m confident about going through to the round, but we’ll talk about it later , today I’m only thinking about Lube and I’m more than ready to take the field because the four weeks of preparation with the national team have helped me. The stimuli are many, as is the desire to bond with a new group. Two considerations give me energy, I have much more time to prepare with the team in view of the Regular Season compared to last year and I already know the setters. I am convinced that we will understand each other wonderfully, it will be a beautiful Lube. Perugia and Trento? On paper they are the best equipped teams, but the pitch will speak. Lube has a good mix of experience, talent and athletic freshness. We have to work hard to get important satisfactions!”
