Athletistic / Basketball CSKA Moscow have reacted to the transfer of center Joel Bolomboy to Greek Olympiakos.

“There is a FIBA ​​regulation, according to which absolutely all basketball clubs live. It says that if a person does not have a valid contract, he can move to any club. And Bolomboy and I ended the agreement this summer. Naturally, we owe him claims for breach of the previous agreement, and we will defend our rights in court. But we cannot prevent his transfer to another club, because the only reason for refusal can be a valid contract. And we don’t have any more, “quotes the vice-president for sports work of the military club Natalia Furaeva “RT in Russian”.

Recall that the transfer of the player to the camp of the Greek club became known this morning. Bolomboy, originally from Donetsk, left the CSKA site at the end of February this year. Subsequently, the club repeatedly demanded that he return, to which the basketball player responded rudely.

In the last VTB United League season, Joel Bolomboy played 11 games for the army club, in which he scored 7.4 points, had 3.9 rebounds and 0.4 assists per game on average.

In the final of the last VTB United League draw, CSKA lost in series to Zenit (3-4) and failed to become champions for the first time in 11 years.
