As the Credem Banca SuperLega rapidly approaches the sixth round of the Regular Season, scheduled for this weekend, the first Credem Banca MVP of the 2025/26 season has been announced. For the month of October, the Credem Banca MVP is Aleksandar Nikolov, a spiker playing for Cucine Lube Civitanova who won silver at this summer’s World Championships in the Philippines.

Nikolov has been awarded MVP twice, following Civitanova’s wins against Yuasa Battery Grottazzolina (first round) and Itas Trentino (third round), awards that earned him the Credem Banca MVP award. So far, the Bulgarian hammer has scored an impressive 96 points in his first games of the season.

Aleksandar Nikolov (Cucine Lube Civitanova): “I’m happy with how I’ve started this Credem Banca SuperLega and with the impact Cucine Lube Civitanova has had. Credem Banca’s first MVP award of the season makes me proud because it’s the result of sacrifice and a lot of work. Such a significant recognition, which I dedicate to my girlfriend Yulita, is also thanks to my teammates. So I thank them for their support. This is an extra incentive for me to give my best, just as the idea of ​​facing league leaders Rana Verona on Sunday gives me great energy.”
