2 – Uroš KOVAČEVIĆ

This 21-year-old guy is one of the youngest players in the team roster, and certainly one of the most talented receivers on the planet. He is Nikola Kovačević’s younger brother, who spent three seasons playing for “ACH Volley Ljubljana” before he moved to Modena where he is currently at. He was one of the key players in the Junior and Youth National Teams of Serbia. Playing with the Youth Boys he managed to win silver at the European Championship in 2009 and gold in 2011, but his biggest achievements are linked to two gold medals at the World Championships in 2009 and in 2011. With the junior team he won bronze at the 2011 World Championship, and with the senior men of Serbia he became the European Champion in 2011. Last year he won silver medal at the U-23 World Championship. Until present day, he played 36 matches in 4 seasons for the national team in the World League.
