Virtus Bologna, not just Achille Polonara for Sergio Scariolo’s roster

Not just Achille Polonara for the felsinei

Virtus Bologna will most likely make a move during the January market window. The Felsinean club is interested in Achille Polonara, who has not convinced at Anadolu Efes, but for the Italian player it will be necessary to wait for the opening of the Euroleague market, between the 16th and 18th day of the top continental competition.

That of the former Fenerbache and Olimpia Milano among others, who is also followed by Panathinaikos, Maccabi Tel Aviv and Red Star, is not the only profile that would suit the roster available to coach Sergio Scariolo. In fact, the Black Vu management is also looking for a thick center who can add something to the long department formed by Jaiteh and Bako.

Last season, Virtus Bologna saw the confirmation of the Scudetto won in 2021 slip away only in the playoff final, lost 4-2 to Olimpia Milano. The highlight of the Felsinians’ year, however, came on May 11, with the conquest of the Eurocup, won in the final against Turkey’s Bursaspor. This success gave Scariolo’s men a pass for the 2022-23 Euroleague season, a competition the Bolognese had not participated in for 14 years.
