Ankara Bank and Galatasaray Istanbul have been the two best teams in Türkiye in recent months. Zareet Bank has made important changes in its main line-up, and the limitation of foreign players can be a big challenge for the defending champion of Türkiye if the line-up is improperly arranged.

On the other hand, Galatasaray, who recently won the Turkish Super Cup, made one of the most important transfers in the domestic market by attracting Efe Mandirachi. However, Galatasaray's squad is not very wide and deep, so keeping the attacking stars fit will be key.

League Most Valuable Player (MVP)

Jean Patry: The passer of the French national team and the leader of Galatasaray's offensive line, has a great opportunity to lead this team to the championship it has been waiting for for a long time. Galatasaray will have a real chance of overturning Zaragoza Bank if the Frenchman continues the season at his highest level.

Denislav Bardarov: In recent months, this player has become one of the most attractive faces of the young generation of volleyball. Bardarov joins Halkbank Ankara and will play at such a high level of club volleyball for the first time in his career. He is trying to help this team on the way to the finals of the Turkish Premier League alongside the legendary Matei Kaziski.

A must watch player

Luca Martilla: He failed to perform well at Volley Monza in Italy, but he performed much better during his loan spell at Fenerbahçe. Now, after spending another wonderful national season, this player is going to Gebze Beldiyespor to start a new season of his career.
