Nikola Mirotic is further away from Olimpia

Nikola Mirotic is still far from Olimpia Milano. This was explained by the red and white general manager Christos Stavropoulos at the media day organized after winning the Scudetto.

“There is nothing. Mirotic is one of the most important players in Europe. We are always careful to probe, to inquire, but from what I know Mirotic still has a contract with Barcelona, still they have not closed his contract. Until a player is free I can’t even think about it.”

Among the players confirmed by Olimpia Milano over the past summer were Paul Biligha and Gigi Datome. The latter, born in 1987, returned to Italy in the summer of 2020 to don the red and white jersey after ending a fruitful experience in Turkey, at Fenerbahce. Previously, the Montebelluna native small forward had walked the parquet floors of the NBA, wearing the colors of the Detroit Pistons and Boston Celtics. Mens Sana Siena, Scafati Basket and Virtus Roma were Datome’s other Italian teams.
