Virtus President: Dubai is likely to enter the Euroleague, Partizan, Red Star and we were offered a three-year license

If everything is correct, the question is how much of a race for the ABA League champion makes sense, because it could happen that Budućnost Voli ends up being the champion, and it is difficult to expect the regional league to get four places in the European elite.

Massimo Zanetti, president of Virtus, first confirmed today that Duško Ivanović will continue to lead the team from Bologna next season, then that the Italian great will continue to play in the Euroleague, and then he touched on our region...

As he pointed out at the press conference, the new member of the AdmiralBet ABA League, the Dubai team, should play in the Euroleague next season, just like Partizan and Red Star.

"We have already received an offer for a three-year license together with Red Star and Partizan. We will negotiate, because it is right to negotiate considering that those three years have a significant cost. We have to find some agreement. Also, there are many situations, Dubai should enter... And it is important to be present," Zanetti pointed out.

If these words are true, then the question is how much of a race for the ABA League champion makes sense, because it could happen that Budućnost Voli ends up being the champion, and it is difficult to expect the regional league to get four spots in the European elite.

The Montenegrin club holds first place in the ABA League for several rounds before the playoffs, with the same performance as Partizan.
