Sergio Scariolo spoke on the eve of the Euroleague debut

Virtus Bologna coach and head coach of European champion Spain, Sergio Scariolo, spoke, interviewed by ‘QS’, about the league but also about the Euroleague.

Precisely in the top European club competition, the Black VUs will make their return after 14 years, on the evening of Friday, October 7, and will face the French Monaco.

On this subject, the coach of the Iberian national team said, “We are at the beginning of a journey. We are now at the first box. We don’t know how many there are to go. We have to think, in perspective, also about a facility. I say this with all the affection I can have, as an acquired Bolognese, for PalaDozza. But to be at the top, in the Euroleague, we need other facilities. I am not saying the Spanish ones, but at least Kaunas and Berlin, which also are not, at the moment, top clubs.”

Then Scariolo focused on the championship: “Clearly we start in the second row, behind the heavily favored Milan. But we start with the desire to confirm ourselves at a high level, although it will not be easy because the level of competition has further elevated.”
