Jean Prado Silva joins FVBK
26 aug 2016
Jean Prado Silva is FVBK's final foreign recruit for season 2016-2017. The höger spiker is 196cm tall, 28 years old and comes from outside of São Paulo, Brazil.
We were put in contact with Jean through our brazilian middle blocker, Pedro Mendes. They have played together and known each other for many years. Pedro describes his countryman as a hard worker and wonderful teammate. Jean played last season in Israel where he won the national championship with his club Ashran Mate Asher. Before then he played in Brazil's Superliga with São Jose dos Campos Vôlei. Jean has in other words played several seasons at a very high level amongst some of the best players in the world. The höger spiker's strengths are his variation in attack and an effective serve. It will be exciting to see what he can do in the Swedish Eliteseries!
- Moving to Sweden will be a fun adventure! I've heard a lot of good things about the country and specifically about FVBK. I look forward to reuniting with Pedro on the court and starting the season with my new club.
We look forward to having you, Jean. Welcome to FVBK!
