World famous volleyball star Paola Egonu made statements in Tuttosport. Saying that she would like to work with Ze Roberto in the future, Egonu said:
“I would like to work with Zé Roberto. I don’t know him and I never had the opportunity to work with him. But I think I can learn a lot from his teachings.”
Egonu, who said that he has great respect for Gabriela Guimaraes, gave the following answer to the question: “Which teams are the most challenging one year after Paris 2024?”
“Since there are no guarantees in sports, the field always speaks. With a momentary thought, I can say Brazil and Turkey. But they are all very good national teams and we are not taking anyone lightly. Let’s focus on our own journey and reaching the final. I’m focused on this, I never think about the opponents.”
Although there were rumors that she would return to VakifBank at the end of last season, Egonu preferred to stay in Italy and had this to say about her choice and her goals for the new club season
“I had the opportunity to consider other offers, but I decided to stay in Milan, in my home country, because I believe in the potential of a team that can give a lot to this club and other clubs without being jealous. It will be a team that will do its best to be effective and decisive throughout the season. It will be a long road, there will be challenges, but we will fight to the end without regrets and knowing that we always do our best.”
