The inclusion of a UAE team among the Euroleague participants could add interest to the tournament and make it bigger, the CSKA president said in an interview with . Andrei Vatutin .
At the end of last year, it became known that a team from the United Arab Emirates could participate in the Euroleague.
— You were in favor of including a team from Dubai in the tournament, what is the situation today?
— I am still convinced that if there is a solution today that could seriously change the tournament and add interest to it, it is the inclusion of a team from Dubai. It’s not just that the city in particular and the UAE in general is a rich region: there is a great opportunity to attract big money, new viewers, audiences and markets to the Middle East and Asia. In mid-March, we will discuss UAE-related projects in depth at a meeting of shareholders of Euroleague clubs,” Vatoutine told .
The current Euroleague champion is Real Madrid. There are currently 18 teams participating in the tournament.
