Amid the busy transfer season, one of France’s most successful clubs, Tours VB, has completed its roster for the 2026/27 campaign.

After parting ways with long-time setter Zeljko Coric, who will play in Poland next season for Norwid Częstochowa, the club has chosen Portuguese setter Bruno Dias, who spent last season with Tourcoing, as his replacement. He will be joined in the position by Argentine setter Pablo Urchevich.

Lining up diagonally opposite the setter, and replacing Slovenian opposite Nik Mujanovic (expected to join Modena in Italy next season, although the move has not yet been officially announced), will be Russian opposite Vasilii Molotkov, one of the standout performers for Paris last season and a key contributor to the club’s Coupe de France triumph. Danish opposite Casper Olsen will also be part of the squad.

The outside hitter unit will feature legendary French star Earvin Ngapeth and confirmed Yaoussia Kavogo, alongside Brazilian Victor Cardoso, from Turkey’s Kuşgöz İzmir Vinç Akkuş Belediyespor, and Bastien Scherer.

In the middle, Tours will rely on Brazilian Leandro Nascimento, together with Simon Roehrig and François Huetz, who arrive from Tourcoing and Paris respectively, as well as young prospect Mathis Huard.

The libero position will be covered by Luca Ramon and Valentin Folgalvez.
