Heungkuk Life Insurance's foreign main gun Tutku is finally returning to the court.

Heungkuk Life Insurance decided on the 8th "Foreign player Tutku's return." The return match is expected to revitalize the team with a game against Pepper Savings Bank on the 9th. Tutku will play officially for the first time in about two months,' he announced.

Tutku was worried when he left the third round match against Jeong Kwan-jang on December 17 last year due to a knee injury. The left knee tendon ruptured and needed rehabilitation. Instead of breaking up with Tutku, who had a high contribution to the attack, Heungkuk Life quickly recruited Matteiko as a substitute to minimize the power gap.




Matteiko seemed to have difficulty adapting to the V-League at the beginning as he joined the team in a hurry. Contrary to concerns, Matteiko gradually began to increase his performance by working with the team, and he showed increasingly impressive performances, helping Heungkuk Life to win six consecutive games recently.

Heungkuk Life had to decide between Tutku and Matteiko as the alternative player contract period (8 weeks) ended. Based on his healthy physical condition, Heungkuk Life decided to accompany Tutku until the end of the rest of the season under the judgment that Tutku's performance was still better.

Heungkuk Life Manager Avon Daza said, `As Tutku has had a long gap, it is important to restore his sense of play. As he has already worked with existing players, he is expected to adapt quickly. Tutku's return will allow him to build a more balanced power in attack and defense."

As of the 9th, Heungkuk Life is leading the season with 21 wins and 5 losses and 61 points. The second-place Hyundai Engineering & Construction is 17 wins and 9 losses and 53 points, eight points apart from Heungkuk Life Insurance. Heungkuk Life had a hard time in the early days of Tutku's departure due to increased dependence on Kim Yeon-koung, but it did not lose the first place as Matteiko gradually gained stability as she adapted to the team. If Kim Yeon-koung and Tutku lead the attack like they did at the beginning of the season, they are expected to continue their current momentum of six consecutive wins.

Hyundai Engineering & Construction head coach Kang Sung-hyung believes the game will be decided in the fifth round. If it happens here, you have to come up with another plan. I think it's important to keep up in the beginning"He showed his will not give up on the first place just yet.

Will Heungkuk Life Insurance be able to shake off Hyundai Engineering & Construction's pursuit and begin to solidify its last-minute lead. Attention is focusing on Tutku's performance and physical condition in his return match, which will determine Heungkuk Life's No. 1 fate.
