Once more Matey Kaziyski has been voted Bulgaria’s Volleyball player of the Year after receiving 4,400 of the 13,938 votes cast by readers of the country’s leading website, Sportal.bg. The outside spiker of Italy’s Energy T.I. Diatec TRENTINO topped the charts for the sixth time after receiving that same award also in 2007, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012.

Back in 2014 Kaziyski swept all domestic competitions in Turkey with his former team Halkbank ANKARA and made it to the gold medal match of the CEV DenizBank Volleyball Champions League losing there to Russia’s Belogorie BELGOROD. He also reached the final match of the 2014 FIVB Volleyball Men’s Club World Championship in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, wearing the shirt of Qatar’s Al-Rayyan.

Tsvetan Sokolov claimed second place in the online poll receiving 2,280 votes. Back in the 2013/2014 season Sokolov still played for TRENTINO with whom he claimed fifth place at the Club World Championship in Brazil. He then moved to Turkey to play for Halkbank ANKARA and with that team he won the Supercup and made the Playoffs 6 of the CEV DenizBank Volleyball Champions League losing to eventual winners Zenit KAZAN of Russia.

Third place was claimed by Boyan Yordanov who received 1,990 votes. Yordanov won Greece’s national cup and national league with Olympiacos PIRAEUS in 2014 but after that he suffered an injury and did not play for the second half of last year.
