Olimpia Milano Transfer News: Armoni Brooks Leaves ASVEL, but to Move Up a Level

ASVEL is facing a major crisis. In fact, the French club is losing all of its star players. The latest to pack his bags was Daniel Thies, who is ready to get back in the game with Maccabi Tel Aviv. Next up will be Armoni Brooks.

The MVP of the most recent Italian regular season—as well as the MVP of the 2026 LBA Finals—the American had said goodbye to his beloved Milan to accept ASVEL’s lucrative offer. Now, given the French club’s problems, a new transfer is on the way.

Many had hoped he might return to wear the red-and-white jersey. A truly utopian scenario. Armani Olimpia Milano’s roster is practically complete (the only thing missing is the official announcement regarding Garrison Mathews, who will, in fact, fill the spot left vacant by Armoni Brooks).

So what? No problem. As reported by several media outlets, Armoni Brooks is set to join Real Madrid. Negotiations are reportedly at an excellent stage, and an agreement seems very close. It’s a sort of upgrade for Armoni Brooks.
