Striker Amat M’Baya came through the Anadolu Efes school and knows well what the spirit of the winner is, he must strengthen the position of the fourth number, the vice president told CSKA Natalia Furaeva.
Previously, CSKA announced on their official website about M’Bai’s transfer to the club. The contract with the 33-year-old French player was signed until the summer of 2024.
– It turns out that we spent most of last season without a player in the number four position. Semyon Antonov was injured at the start of the season, and all the other players who were available to us were combos: 3-4 or 5-4. We didn’t have the opportunity to replace Semyon, so we spent the whole last year alone. So, we can say that this is our first acquisition.
The player went through the school of a great team. Because Efes is the winner of the past and the year before the Euroleague draw. This year they won the Turkish championship. In a word, M’Bai knows what the spirit of the winner is. He has proven his worth in big team matches. We are very happy to have been able to sign such a player.
– In a word, did Antonov have a good competitor in the position of number four?
“Well, I wouldn’t call him a competitor. Changer. No one can play every forty minutes. Therefore, on the contrary, I hope that the two players will successfully alternate,” Furaeva told a correspondent.
Last season, M’Bay played for Turkish Anadolu Efes. The Frenchman has played 33 Euroleague games, averaging seven points and 2.8 rebounds. As part of the Istanbul club, the striker became the champion of Turkey.
CSKA won bronze in the VTB United League in the 2022/23 season.
