Is Russian League Stronger Than Italian League?

According to middle blocker Alexander Ostapenko the Russian League is stronger than the Italian League.

It’s kind of strange for him to say that knowing he is playing with Copra Volley Piacenza in the Italian League and he is Russian.

Anyways, this is what he told sovsport.ru:

“Italian league is one of the best leagues in the world.

There are only a few very strong teams. All players play with huge desire.

At the same time, I would NOT say that Italian League is stronger than the Russian League. For example top club team Russian Belogorie is much stronger than the top teams here in Italy.”

If we were to choose the storngest league in the world, that’s a tough question.

On the other hand, we can definitely say that Russian League is THE RICHEST league in the world. A lot of teams can afford some world class players like Matt Anderson, Gyorgy Grozer, Ivan Zaytsev and Saeid Marouf just to name a few.

What do you think?
