Got something to say?



[...] Euroleague Transfers [...]
[...] Euroleague Transfers [...]
There’s no chance Bouroussis is leaving Olympiakos. He is actually going to get a new multi-year, multi-million contract.
Papaloukas, Pelekanos and Erceg are 100% Olympiakos players although there’s nothing official yet. Halperin is also very close.
Roderick Blakney is leaving and so is Qyntel Woods, which is a shame because he really made an impact this year
Just a little correction: Rafa Martinez finally didnt sign for Real. In fact hes very close on signing with Pamesa Valencia
thanks for the info
Another correction:
Norel belongs to Joventut, he was loaned last season in Alicante, He’s in the same situation of Tomas, Ukic…etc
@neozyrus
true, i forgot to mention it
Admin:
You can add in your table that Zalgiris budget will be 5-6M€
Also I think you shoud add to your table players, who are staying in their teams. But anyway, good job!
@name
I would like to do that too….
Olimpija budget will be 4M€
OLIMPIJA:
Bečirovič(10%), Brezec(50%), Ilievski(60%)
budget 4M€
P.S.: Bečirovič will never play for ALBA
You have to put Antony Parker also at Olympiakos possible arraivals. And Mickle Finley also.
Tomas Delininkaitis from Azovmas goes to Zalgiris. Buy out 60$ Euros
Colins left Zalgiris
Jevgenij >>> source…? thanks…
arnybasket >>> Yes it’s true. It’s not official yeat, bet wait a little bit.
Jevgenij >>> ok thanks… well it’s not very good player, but like second SF/PG he’ll be not bad
Jevgenij:
If you are not lying, so why Azovmash is letting Delininkaitis go? 6I guess it’s not because of money, coz 60 000 it’s not big money for Azovmash. Also Delininkaitis was one you their best player, and he’s better player than Serapinas, except that Serapinas is better defender.
I’ts true. I have a information from club inside. Serapinas will replace Delininkaitis. Official information was in Juli first quater.
OK, but why? Why Azovmash will let Delininkaitis go to other team, why they won’t keep him in Azovmash? I understand that Serapinas will replace him, but Delininkaitis is beter player. Anyway, thanks for info.
Because Delininkaitis and his wife or girlfriend don’t like Mariuop. Delininkaitis says that he want go to home where he can play in the Euroleague. Good luck for him
Delininkaitis got married yesterday

http://img.lrytas.lt/show_foto/?f=4&id=28175&s=1
oh thanks
Any rumours about Delininkaitis in Lithuania?
no rumours about Delininkaitis in here..
Why? Lithuania press very bad information…
Hmm Popovic said to Croatian media, that he refused two very good offers from Russian teams and one from Spain, coz he wants to play in Euroleague and he said that he’s near agreement with Zalgiris and if he won’t signed zalgiris, then he’ll prbably come back to Zadar… Also Marcus Brown should stay in Kaunas, so what Delininkaitis would do in Zalgiris? Also according sportalas.com Zalgiris made an offer to Jasaitis, Salenga is also staying, and Maciulis agency protalent already wrote in their official site, that jona signed new contract with Zalgiris. it seems now place for Delininkaitis. So, Jevgenij, maby Delininkaitis would come to Zalgiris only if Popovic will not comeback? But we’ll see
stop writing crapy thinks! is’not discussion forum!
Few fixes to Maccabi:
Tre Simmons sign in Maccabi officially 2 weeks ago mark him.
It’s not Andre Emmet(former rytas), It’s Andre Barret(former Austin torows NBDL)
Chris Andersen is not candidate to Maccabi.
Maccabi Is highly interested in Jackie Butler.
Micov from Buducnost is quoted to say: “I would like to play for Partizan.”

Hey, Brazilian basketball fan here.
Yesterday I read an interview with Rafael Araujo, he said that he’d like to try himself out in the Euroleague, then maybe try getting back into NBA. He’s not too happy with general conditions in Russia. He didn’t name any teams, but he said that he’s most likely to sign with Polish or Lithuanian teams, somewhere where he could get lots of play time and try himself out. Hope you find this interesting.
“Žalgiris” manager said in interview that they are interested in Tomas Delininkaitis and Loren Woods. Besides “Žalgiris” manager said that Delininkaitis wants to go to the “Žalgiris”.

So why these comentars is not deleted? where you see any links here?
I my previous post, that was deleted, I wrote that info about Woods is from krepsinis.net website.
Next season Sarunas Jasikevicius will play in Barca.
http://www.krepsinis.net/news.php?news_id=80580
He wrotes contract for 2 years!
After the game with Iceland, Saras confirmed that he’s staying in Panathinaikos. According to sportalas.com he would like to move to Barca, but their offer is not even close to how pana is paying to him.
Great work Christophe, maintaining this overview. But what exactly do you consider a transfer rumour by media and/or discussion forums? Is it somebody posting some “insider info” on a discussion board? Is it a newspaper writing about rumors? What about other webblogs? I just experience on german boards that this overview itself is considered a reliable source for rumors so a clarification of the phrase “by various media or online discussion forums” would be excellent.
@Gruebler
Great comment.
I was not really aware of the impact that this table would have. I see that even websites or newspapers refer to the “rumors” posted here and talk about them.
For the rumors that I take from “various media or online discussion forums”, I really go on my own feeling if a rumor is a real rumor or just an invention of a crazy fan writing in a forum.
I also check with some people I know in the staff of the different teams if some rumors are true or not. But it is of course very difficult to check what has some background and what is pure phantasy.
Brown stays Zalgiris Kaunas.
L.Woods signed for Zalgiris Kaunas.

Just a small note: You should remove Betts from Efes coz the club wasn’t even interested in him
Zalgiris is interested in H. Mottola and D. Slanina:
http://www.infosport.lt/news.php?news_id=20384&sport=10
“Žalgiris” interested in Donatas Slanina and Hanno Mottola. Source - http://www.krepsinis.net/news.php?news_id=80858
@Nikola and Neimas
my sources deny this rumor
@Christophe: Zalgiris vicepresident Navikauskas confirmed that Mottola is in candidates list, although it seems he could come just if negotiations with other candidates wouldn’t be succesful. Also Navikauskas said that at the moment Slanina’ price is too big for Zalgiris. But who knows, maybe Donatas will agree to play for smaller money. So it seems your sources could be wrong. And also he confirmed that there are negoatiations with M.Zukauskas but probably he will stay in Pesaro.
Also sportalas.com wrote that other candidates to Zalgiris are E.Brow, Z.Cabarkapa, M.Timinskas.
@name
ok, these statements have been made after i spoke with my source. But on the other hand, they somehow confirm that both players are not the first choice of the Zalgiris management at the moment.
To Christophe:
could you confirm if Zalgiris is interested in Kirk Penney?
Krstic signed today for Triumf
Hano Mottola has a contract with Aris
http://s1.gladiatus.gr/game/c.php?uid=66014
“Žalgiris” is interested in Andre Barrett. Source - http://www.eurobasket.lt/lt/naujienos/34649/#all
[...] has the guard of the Phoenix Suns already in his possbile moves for 08/09 and puts him on the shopping list of Unicaja Malaga, [...]
It will b not Macas, but probably Timinskas. Contract should be signed this or next week. Personally i am not too happy about this signing (if it’s really will happen), but our budget is small and players prices increased..
here are some updates about Partizan Belgrade:
Dejan Borovnjak left to Vojvodina.
LINK: http://www.b92.net/sport/kosarka/kosarka.php?yyyy=2008&mm=08&dd=01&nav_id=311074
Also Bojan Krstovic signed a 3 year contract with Hemofarm Stada so he CAN’T be on our potential arrivals list.
LINK: http://xs4.b92.net/sport/kosarka/kosarka.php?yyyy=2008&mm=07&dd=25&nav_id=310159
And finally, Novica Velickovic iz just a wish of Dynamo Moscow, Partizan is not negotiating with them, and NOT willing to sale him. So you can turn the bold off
Greetings.
Maccabi signed Arroyo
it seems Zalgiris stoped bargainings with Timinskas an now probably will look for sg-pg player, so probably a foreigner. While Timinskas is SF and if he would come (npw it probably won’t happen), then Salenga would move to sg.
Timinskas isn’t a candidate at all
Olimpija signed Vladimir Golubovic.
Timinskas was a candidate, actually the contract was almost signed, but then bargainings was stoped. Rumours says, that coach Grigas stoped bargainings, because he want’s SG-PG player (similar as Popovic style), coz of risk, if Deane wouldn’t play as expected or if he would play well,but got injurie, then Zalgiris would left just with Kalnietis in pg position, so new sg/pg could also take pg responsibilities in such case, although he will play sg more.. And moreover, it seems concract with him should be signed this week.
Btw, Gintaras Krapikas should join Zalgiris’ coaching staff, it seems he and team agreed about concract, so now just signature is needed. Also Zygimantas janavicius probably will play in Zalgiris next season, although it was expected to see him in new LKL and BBL Challenge team - “Kaunas”, where mostly Zalgiris second team leaders (Vasiliauskas, Cepukaitis, probably Motiejunas) will play with additions of some players who used to go to Sabonis’ basketball school, like Butkevicius for example. Could it mean that Kalnietis will be loaned somewhere?

According to really reliable (he already proved that more than once, when talking about Zalgiris) guy from eurobasket.lt forum, Alex garcia will replace Popovic. It will be announced in nearest days, maybe even today.
“Žalgiris” is interested in Alex Garcia. Source - http://www.krepsinis.net/news.php?news_id=81550

Why you deleted Alex Garcia from “Žalgiris” arrivals list ?, “Žalgiris” is still interested in him.
@Neimas

>>>Christophe so who is a target now? who is your information source?
