Here I will introduce my dream team (Top 7) selected for the men's qualifying round of the Volleyball Nations League.
Outside hitter
Aleksandar Nikolov

Bulgaria
207cm
Born November 30, 2003 (21 years old)
208 points (attack 177, serve 16, block 15)
Attack Effectiveness Rate: 35%
Serve reception success rate: 47%
A young point getter who supported the Bulgarian national team's progress together with his brother Simeon. Despite only being 21 years old, he produced a lot of points with his height, power, and the competitive spirit he honed in the Italian league, and was ranked 4th overall in the best scorer category. He showed high performances in the games against Slovenia, Japan, and Poland, and contributed greatly to the team's gold medals, but struggled to perform at his best in the games against Turkey and Iran, and unfortunately missed out on advancing to the final round. He vows to get revenge at the World Championships.
Efe Mandıracı

Türkiye
206cm
Born April 1, 2002 (23 years old)
187 points (149 attacks, 26 serves, 12 blocks)
Attack Effectiveness Rate: 34%
Serve receive success rate: 41%
A rising star who led the Turkish team, who were at risk of relegation in this tournament, scoring the most points. In addition to his high and sharp spikes, his serves were particularly impressive in this tournament, with 26 service aces, the most overall. In the qualifying round against Brazil, who were in the lead, he hit six aces himself, giving Brazil a hard time. Another point is that he is not particularly bad at receiving serves and is skillful. Although he did not play against Japan in this tournament, he is scheduled to face Japan in the group matches of the World Championships, and they will surely be a formidable opponent then as well.
Runner-up
Trevor Clevenot (France)
Marlon Yant (Cuba)
Middle Blocker
Yuri Semeniuk

Ukraine
210cm
Born May 12, 1994 (31 years old)
142 points (attack 97, serve 8, block 37)
Attack Effectiveness Rate: 48%
Ukraine's Wall ranked first overall in the block rankings and made himself known as a world-class blocker in this tournament. Not only is he good at blocking, but he also has high quick scoring ability, and he was the top middle blocker in the attack score rankings. As captain, he led the team and was the driving force behind the Ukrainian team's first tournament victory over the United States and Japan, and their fierce battles against Brazil and Italy in full sets. However, he was narrowly defeated in the final match against Canada, which determined their advancement to the final round, and was eliminated from the qualifying round. He vows to make further progress in the World Championships.
Jakub Nowak

Poland
205cm
Born June 11, 2005 (20 years old)
77 points (52 attack, 2 serve, 23 block)
Attack Effectiveness Rate: 61%
A supernova midfielder who suddenly appeared on the Polish national team. He is just 20 years old and has no experience playing in the Polish top league, but when he got the chance to play in the absence of Paris midfielders Bieniek and Huber, he showed high performance and earned the manager's trust. His number of blocks per set of 0.70 is among the best in this tournament. He also has very good quick shots and, like the other Polish midfielders, is adept at connecting passes. He is sure to give Japan a hard time in the quarterfinals of the final round.
