In his last year as a player Barcelona passes through Nikola Mirotic!
As revealed by the Serbian website “telesport.rs”, the two sides are in negotiations for the solution of their cooperation, after the end of this season! The reasons why this will happen are more or less… known.
On the one hand, it is for purely competitive reasons, as the Montenegrin forward has recorded a significant decline in his performance, culminating in his recent disappointing performance in the semi-final of the Euroleague Final Four against Real Madrid.
On the other hand, there are also serious economic reasons. The Catalans intend to make a big cut in next season’s budget and the former NBAer is currently it costs them annually an amount that can exceed 11 million euros (including taxes with the tax authorities).
In the meantime, Mirotic’s case is not too easy. The experienced forward he still has two years left on his contract with the “Blaugrana”. So, in the event that Barca proceed to release him, they will have to pay him the entire amount, which is close to 10 million euros.
However, the Blaugrana management has already made the decision to end its partnership with the playerso she is willing to do everything in order to find the “golden ratio” in the negotiations.
Nikola Mirotic moved to Barcelona in 2019, having celebrated a championship and two Spanish Cups with them.
