The legend of Valencia is long gone, and now he wants to write a great story further north in Spain... The injury is in the past, Bojan Dubljević made his debut for Zaragoza at the "Johe Luis Abos" Memorial - it seems at the ideal moment, ten days before the start of the season .
The club from Aragon defeated Baskonia (89:83) for the trophy at a friendly tournament in their city, and the match in the "Prince Philip" arena was the first for the captain of Montenegro since March when he injured his Achilles tendon while playing for Zenit.
Dubi played 16 minutes against a team led by Pablo Laso this season, instead of our own Duško Ivanović, scored seven points and had the same number of rebounds.
"Dubljević is a 'hugadoraco' (Spanish word for player), I'm sure she will do well in Zaragoza," said Đoan Sastre, a former teammate of our center in Valencia, but also a former Zaragoza basketball player.
His captain in the new club, Santi Justa, used the same word to describe our basketball player.
"The player, the top European basketball player we have in Zaragoza - will help us a lot this season," Justa emphasized.
Dubljević returned to Spain, where he wore the Valesnia jersey for 11 years, after one season at Zenit.
For the club from St. Petersburg, he averaged nine points, 4,8 rebounds and 1,4 assists, but due to the aforementioned injury, he missed most of the second part of the season, as well as the Olympic qualifiers with Montenegro.
The news from the Pyrenees will certainly please the fans of our national team and coach Boško Radović before November and the continuation of the Eurobasket qualifiers.
Zaragoza will also open the new season of the Endes League on September 29 against Lleida, and the club from Aragon will also play in the Fiba Eurocup.
