Official: No more Mirotic from Barcelona!

After weeks of discussions, Mr Nikola Mirotic he is officially free!

THE Barcelona announced the end of its collaboration with the Montenegrin forward, who can look for the new stage of his career, changing the facts in European basketball!

As the announcement states, the termination of the collaboration with Mirotic it was done because of the financial sustainability plan that the “Blaugrana” have put in place. We remind you that the 32-year-old had the richest contract in Europe, as the remaining two years of his agreement would cost “Barca” 22 million euros (including taxes)!

Mirotic himself initially insisted that every drachma of the amount due be paid over the next two years, but eventually the two sides came to an end to their partnership. However, it remains unknown how the release agreement was made, which is likely to be determined through legal channels.

Now, the next stage of the great forward’s career is expected to be known soon. Partizan is the big favorite and seems to be one breath away from getting him, but he certainly doesn’t leave the rest of the Euroleague teams unmoved, so everything is open.

The 33-year-old suffered an Achilles injury before the start of the 2022-23 season, which kept him out until December. After his return to the court, o Mirotic averaged 15.4 points and 4.3 rebounds for a 16.4 PIR in the Euroleague. His numbers were similar in Liga Endesa, where he averaged 13.6 points and 4.6 rebounds for 15.6 PIR.

With the Blaugrana, Mirotic won two titles in ACB and two Copa del Rey. He also became the 2022 EuroLeague MVP.
