Gasimova’s Dream Comes True

Dreams come true! Right Natavan?

The 25 year old setter from Azerbaijan has officially signed on to play in the Italian League for Scavolini Pesaro. Natavan Gasimova will play together with Manon Flier, Martina Guiggi and current starting setter Francesca Ferretti. Pesaro is currently ranked #2 in the Italian League and has qualified for the Playoffs in the Champions Leage.

Anyways, we bet Natavan is very excited! It’s her dream to play in Italy!

To prove how happy she is, Natavan released this statement to Azeri Volley:

My dear friends and fans,every one whom I leave here in my native Azerbaijan,and the ones whom I am going to meet in my new home- Pesaro.

I am just very happy… I can not describe it…Everything happened so quickly that I just know begin to know what happens… But know realized-I have to be ready for new challenge of my life,it is turning point of my professional career!

I began my sports life in my Motherland,playing for the flagman of our volleyball-Azerrail Baku. We had so many sweet moments for these 8 years. Both in my club and National team. But now I am leaving my club here, for new page of my life…For Scavolini Pesaro. One of the best teams of the modern volleyball. “Calibri girls” won Italian Serie A1 Championship three times in a row and I don`t need to introduce this team more… I think it is quite enough to imagine how great team is Scavolini Pesaro. It is very professional team,in any part of its activity.

I hope it will help me to come back to my National team with new breath,for taking the biggest aims with our great coach Faig Garayev and strong players who just looking for the first chance to show high level volleyball in the International arena AGAIN. As we used to do that in European and World Championships.

I am looking forward to meet my new teammates,i hope I will be useful for my team on their long way in the Italian Seri A1 and the CEV Champions league. There are so many top players like Manon Flier,Martina Guiggi,Destinee Hooker,Francesca Feretti,Senna Usic,Monica De Gennaro,Elisa Manzano. And the coach Paolo Tofoli-one of the best setters in men`s volleyball. I hope we will understand each other both as setters and a player with coach.

I hope. I believe!

I would like to thank our National federation President for the best conditions he provided us, President of Azerrail Baku for believing me all this time, and of course tmy head coach Faig Garayev for everything he did for me.

But I am also very grateful to my new President Giancarlo Sorbini and coach Paolo Tofoli for believing me. I hope I will justify their
confidence.

Good-bye,my friends,see you soon my Azerbaijan…

Hello my new home – Pesaro. Hello – My DREAM TEAM!

Sincerely,
Natavan GASIMOVA

You forgot to thank who did your hair and make-up girlfriend! Kidding! Kidding! On a serious note, girlfriend is very happy! We can feel it all the way here in the USA! When dreams come true, there are not enough words to explain the happiness. She must be very thrilled to play with the great Manon Flier. We would be too!

Anyways, good luck in Italy!

Side Dish: Pesaro first contacted American setter, Ashley Engle, but the transfer didn’t push through. Engle has returned in Azerbaijan to resume her contract with Baku.
