Trentino Volley confirms the guideline that will characterize the 2017 summer acquisition market, planning the arrival of a new player in addition to Vettori. In fact, the Slovenian Jan Kozamernik will play as middle-hitter for the sport club of via Trener for the next three seasons. He has an enormous potential but he’s also fundamental for the immediate future. Although he is very young (class 1995 he will be 22 at Christmas), the middle-hitter that was born in Lubiana, has already played at international level, taking part in the European Championship, European League and World League with his National team and in Champions with ACH Volley. The management of Trentino Volley has noticed him for what he has shown he’s able to do wearing the shirt of the Slovenian National team, with whom he has already won a silver medal, and playing for Lubiana: he will soon become one of the strongest players in his role. Jan is a very strong player and fast attack and block are his best fundamentals. In the last edition of CEV champions League he scored 109 points in 11 matches, performing 12 aces, attacking with 59% and registering 36 blocks that made him “best blocker” of the competition. Kozamernik will be the second Slovenian player to wear the yellow-blue colours  in the whole history.
Kozamernik is a player that has all features we were looking for – stated the president of Trentino Volley Diego Mosna -. He’s young, strong and ready to try to achieve high levels, the same purpose we have to have new chances to win. I’m sure he can achieve important goals as has already happened to other young players that have worn the yellow-blue colours”.
He has a great potential – added the coach of Trentino Volley Angelo Lorenzetti relating to the newest member -; He has a very effective fast attack and he can improve. Even if he’s very young, he distinguished himself in the National team; we know his starting point but we don’t know what he can achieve, because he can grow and allow us to make a qualitative leap”.
