Ettore Messina says "no" to Barcelona, NBA

May 4, 2008

But “yes” to another year in Moscow. Great news at least for European basketball:

Today PBC CSKA and the head coach of the club Ettore Messina reached the agreement to sign the new ‘1+1’ contract. The current agreement with the coach expires after the 2007/08 season.

Andrei Vatutin, PBC CSKA CEO:

– I am glad we made the agreement with the best coach of Europe. We did not miss a single Euroleague Final in three years. I think there is no sense to look for any other reasons to continue our relationship. It was very important to agree the contract during the Final Four.

With the Euroleague Final Four Final just coming up, this announcement from CSKA and Messina at 7.30pm, 1-1/2 hours before the Euroleague final, may be huge.

Great news!
