FIVB STILL NOT approve Wilfredo León’s application to change sports nationality to Polish

The Cuban Men’s Volleyball star Wilfredo León, who is now playing for Zenit Kazan, is highly disappointed with the fact.

“The ball is on the side of the FIVB and there is nothing I can do. I just have to wait for a solution. I think the FIVB is able to take appropriate steps so that I can play with the Polish National Team which Cuban federation cannot block. I do not know if this will be solved this season. The Cuban federation is doing everything so that me and other players who have ever played for Cuba can not play in other national teams. The FIVB, however, is able to make some decisions to solve this,“ León said for Przegląd Sportowy.

“Yes, that is my dream, but time goes by very fast. As long as I do not have the consent of the FIVB to play with the Polish National Team, we can only guess on this. I can not speed it up” Added León.

We hope that FIVB, Leon and Cuban federation can soon have a mutual agreement on the issue.
