After winning the Turkish Second Division national title, Nataša Čikiriz arrived in Porto to join FC Porto’s volleyball team, now taking the first steps in a new stage of her career in Portugal.

The 31-year-old Serbian opposite began her senior career at ŽOK Klek. She then moved to OK Vizura, where she won two league titles (2013/14 and 2014/15), one cup (2014/15) and two super cups (2013/14 and 2014/15). Later, she began an international career that took her to Poland, Germany, Taiwan, Romania, Turkey, China, Thailand and Russia.

Last season, the attacker played for Afyon Belediye Yüntaş SK and finished as Turkish Second Division national champion, also helping the team earn promotion to the top flight, where some of the best teams in the world compete.

Among her achievements, she also has a silver medal in the Asian Champions League (2022/23), several caps for the Serbian national team and a bronze medal in the European League (2012).

Standing 1.93 metres tall, the opposite has a spike reach of 3 metres and a block reach of 2.90 metres, qualities that promise to strengthen Porto’s attack. At FC Porto, she will work again with Saska Durovic, who was her teammate in 2018/19 at OK Tent.
