Water polo record champion Spandau 04 has received a top-class newcomer.
As the club announced on Wednesday, Roman Shepelev, a Russian international from Sintez Kazan, will join the team of Greek coach Athanasios Kechagias, who is also new.

Shepelev has 150 appearances in the Russian national team and took part in several European Championships with them.
His move to Berlin was not easy after waiting many weeks for a visa to enter Germany. Dmitrii Kholod, Spandau’s top performer, is particularly pleased to be chasing goals with his Russian teammate for the water friends.
