Russian clubs have been kicked out of the Euroleague since the start of the war in Ukraine. However, the head of the Euroleague hopes that Russian clubs will return to the strongest European basketball tournament.
“I admire CSKA. When the conflict ends and the situation stabilizes, we would be happy to see this team back in the league again,” said Ch. Bueno.
When P. Motiejūnas was in charge of the Euroleague, it was more difficult for the Russians to knock on the door of this tournament. We remind you that at the very beginning of the war, the same P. Motiejūnas threatened the Euroleague, if it does not suspend Russian clubs, then Kaunas “Žalgiris” will not play the teams of the country that caused the invasion.
