France Top Favorites To Win Euro Volley

After winning the 2017 FIVB World League, there is NO doubt that defending champions Earvin Ngapeth and France are the top favorites to win the European Championship again. France looks very solid despite the absence of former stars Antonin Rouzier, Nicolas Maréchal and Pierre Pujol.

As expected, Team Yavbou is led by their star players Earvin Ngapeth and Jenia Grebennikov. Coach Tillie also welcomes the return of his son, Kevin, after a long absence due to injury which required surgery. Then there’s the short but crafty Julien Lyneel, middles Kevin Le Roux and Nicolas Le Goff, young but dominant Stéphen Boyer and the glue that sticks the team together Benjamin Toniutti.
