Elevich: “In terms of gameplay, Pistiolis is much stronger than Rajkovic. For CSKA, extending his contract was the right decision.”

CSKA made the right decision by extending the contract with the team’s head coach Andreas Pistiolis, honored Russian basketball coach Sergei Elevich told .

On Thursday, CSKA announced the contract extension with the team’s head coach Pistiolis. The agreement will be valid until the end of the 2025/26 season.

— I see that Pistiolis is much stronger than Raikovich in terms of play. I think that CSKA extending his contract was the right decision. If by next season the club strengthens certain positions, the team will be even more combat-ready than it is now. If you look at the current position at the club, there is room for growth and improvement. But Andreas knows what to do, why teach him something? He is definitely on the right track. The most important thing is that he knows how to maneuver the lineup correctly, with him the team does not isolate itself, I like that,” Elevich told .

The Greek coach took charge of CSKA in mid-April, at the end of the VTB United League regular season, replacing Emil Raikovich. Under the leadership of Pistiolis, the army team won the playoffs against Krasnoyarsk Enisey (3-0) and St. Petersburg Zenit (4-2) and reached the final of the VTB League United.

In the final series, CSKA will play against UNICS Kazan. The first match will take place in the capital of Tatarstan on May 26.
