It is a hypothesis put forward by some Turkish sites and by 'voleybolmagazin.com', but Paola Egonu could leave Vakifbank Istanbul after just one season, a star-studded team she joined last summer from Imoco Conegliano.
In fact, again according to what these sources reported, Vakifbank would be determined to sign Tijana Boskovic, now en route with Eczacibasi, and the arrival of the Serbian champion elected as best player of the last World Cup, who occupies the same role as the blue, would result in the automatic departure of the Egonu.
So far there have been no reactions either from the person concerned or from the club, but it is recalled that several times Egonu, in her first months in Turkey, said she felt comfortable in her new environment and had good relations with the coach of Vakifbank, the Italian Giovanni Guidetti.
Meanwhile, next February 9, the 24-year-old 'star' of the blue team will take a break from volleyball as co-host of the third evening of the Sanremo Festival.
