Achille Polonara, Virtus Bologna remains vigilant

On the big day of the challenge against Barcelona at the Palau Blaugrana, however, there is still talk of the market at Virtus Bologna and in particular the interest shown in recent weeks in Achille Polonara.

The Italian, who at Efes is not finding the space he expected after arriving from Fenerbahce, has been repeatedly approached by the Bologna club, which had already sounded the ground in the summer, but then turned to other targets. There is, however, a no small obstacle that could affect the club’s choices as much as the player’s: the deadline imposed by the Euroleague for transfers.

Euroleague Basketball has in fact set Monday, January 9, as the last day for the transfer of a player from one club participating in the competition to another, and at the moment the Black VUs have not yet sunk the blow: the timeframe is therefore tight, a decisive and quick move will be needed if Virtus wants to bring Polonara back to Italy. Otherwise, despite Singleton’s arrival that has further closed the space in coach Ataman’s rotations, the 31-year-old native of Ancona could stay at Efes without the chance to play the Euroleague with another club.
