"we are excited to play in the quarter-finals against the best team in Poland. We are preparing the match very carefully because they are having an amazing season both in the League and CEV Champions League. Of course, our team is a bit worried because we will be very close to the border with Ukraine, but we believe that if we will play the match, it means that there will be zero risk for anything.”

Giovanni Guidetti
Head coach VakifBank ISTANBUL

“We are very excited to play against a good team like Rzeszow. They are in amazing form in both the league and Champions League. We know that they are very dangerous. We need to study and be ready to face a great team. In the first match, we will travel to Poland and play there. We know that they are playing well in there. We faced Turkish Airlines in the Turkish League and that match was a great test to prepare us for this match. First matches are always important to make the big step"
