In an original move, the Monaco!
The French team, which in a short period of time has now developed into an important force in European basketball, is expected to face major problems with taxation from next season.
In particular, the LNB, the federation of the French league, aims to impose a new one from next year luxury tax for teams that spend more than 8.5 million euros on player salaries and coaching fees. Such a measure obviously concerns more the “expensive” and developing Monaco, which is considering an idiosyncratic solution to the specific issue, since with the present data it will need to pay at least 2 million euros just for the extra taxation.
The Monegasques consider using their exact dozen exclusively on EuroLeague, and form a different, cheaper roster for the domestic league. This will have its youth team as its main core Monacoconsisting of players up to the age of 21.
That would obviously weaken Saša Obradovic’s side a lot in terms of the league, but the Monegasques are serious about it as their top priority is to continue to star in the EuroLeague.
