Currently there are two foreign clubs in the league – Kazakh”Astana “and Belarusian”Minsk “. In 2022, the Polish club “Zielona Gora ‘ and Estonian ‘Kalev “.
– Do you plan to invite foreign teams to the league in the future, as was the case before? Maybe clubs from the post-Soviet space or friendly Serbia?
“You are well aware of the situation. We live in modern realities. Now we focus more on the interior and on the development of Russian basketball players. We just have to use this time, when we are not playing in European competition, for the training of national clubs and national players.
Also, there are “Minsk” and “Astana” in the league. These are two clubs that have been in the league for a long time. We are not chasing anyone. Foreign clubs left for certain reasons. But from that departure, again, the United League did not become less interesting,” Korstin told .
