Arina Fedorovtseva Officially Announces Fenerbahçe Move! The Russian Star Makes Revealing Statements

Arina Fedorovtseva, who won back-to-back championships with Fenerbahçe in the Sultanlar League before playing in China, has made some notable revelations. The Russian star confirmed her return to Fenerbahçe and shared some intriguing admissions. Here are the details:

Fedorovtseva had previously parted ways with Fenerbahçe for half a season and moved to China. Recently, there were claims about her rejoining Fenerbahçe for 2.5 years, and she addressed these rumors and delivered good news to Fenerbahçe fans.

“Fenerbahçe is a Special Club”

The Russian star revealed to Volley News that she has signed a contract with Fenerbahçe until 2027. She continued:
“Fenerbahçe is a very special club. I can say this with confidence after playing there for three seasons. Talented, ambitious, and strong… I would describe our team this way. I am extremely happy to be a part of it and to work with my teammates to achieve the goals we have set for ourselves.”

Best Server of the Last 3 Seasons

Fedorovtseva, who has been the top server in three tournaments each year for the past four seasons, commented on being the best server in Turkey over the last three seasons:
“I enjoy serving and am very happy to have found a personal style. Achieving such results required a lot of effort and practice, so I am especially proud of my success in this area.”

Why Did She Go to China?

The Russian volleyball player, who spent half a season playing in China, explained her decision:
“My choice was driven by interest and curiosity. I have always found the idea of playing in the Chinese league fascinating. Everything, from the culture to the organization of the league, is a bit different for European players.”

“I Stepped Out of My Comfort Zone”

“This makes stepping out of your comfort zone and embarking on new challenges even more motivating. I chose Shanghai because it is a very ambitious club aiming to win the championship. The beautiful city also attracted me.”

“Semi-Final Was Disappointing”

When asked about the Champions League semi-final against Vero Volley Milano and whether she could have done anything better, she replied:
“Certainly! The way our journey in the Champions League ended last year was very upsetting and disappointing. That’s why it remains one of our main goals.”

Finally, when asked about working with two great coaches at Fenerbahçe, Zoran Terzić and Stefano Lavarini, and whether they are very different, Fedorovtseva concluded:
“I think they are both great coaches, but they are completely different from each other. They have different strengths, and I have learned a lot from both. I am happy to have worked with them. However, I don’t think it’s fair to compare them.”
