Olimpiakos is on Fire!
The Greek basketball giant Olympiakos is slowly but surely rebuilding its team for the upcoming season. Some reinforcements have already arrived, but the club is not giving up on its big target – Daniel Oturu! Yes, you read that right, Oturu, the 25-year-old Efes player who played 38 games this season averaging 8.8 points and 4.2 rebounds per game.
An Offer You Can’t Refuse?
Israeli media report that Olympiakos has increased its offer to a whopping 1.5 million euros for two years! Is that enough to finally convince Oturu to sign? The Greek champion clearly doesn’t want to waste time and is ramping up the offensive to secure his signature as soon as possible and strengthen the roster.
New American in Piraeus
Besides Oturu, Olympiakos has already brought in American Tyson Ward, standing 27 cm tall, who previously played for Paris. He has already arrived in Piraeus and will soon undergo medical examinations and sign a contract with the Greek champion.
What Does This Mean for the EuroLeague?
Olympiakos clearly doesn’t want to be left out in the EuroLeague and plans to return to the top. With reinforcements like Ward and the potential arrival of Oturu, the Piraeus club is sending a clear message to the competition – we are ready to fight!
Serbian Players and the EuroLeague
At the same time, Serbian players and clubs are in the spotlight. Miloš Teodosić has ended his career, while it is still unknown where Vasilije Micić and Filip Petrušev will play next season. Also, Serbian basketball players of Partizan are the new Serbian champions after 11 years, which further heats up the basketball scene in the region.
Conclusion
Olympiakos is not playing it safe for the next season. With reinforcements already arriving and big plans for Oturu, the Greek club is in full offensive mode. Will they manage to assemble a team that will dominate the EuroLeague? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure – in Piraeus, they play big!
