While Belgrade and Moscow have been the known candidate cities to host the Euroleague 2018 Final Four, Euroleague CEO Jordi Bertomeu revealed that there is also… another player on the table.

“We have very good conversations with Belgrade, with Moscow, with Athens and other cities. It’s a matter of establishing a calendar that is convenient for the cities and for us”, he said to Israeli website Team Scout. “Fortunately the Final Four is a tournament that many cities want to host.”

“We hope that very soon we will be ready to announce the 2018 Final Four but we still need to finish some conversations and then we will start working for 2019,” Bertomeu added.

Speaking of Final Fours, what has been his  favorite moment in the history of the tournament? “As a basketball fan what happened in Istanbul 2012 was really unique. I have great memories from the Final Four in Prague because we made a jump to a different level. Paris in 2010 was a similar kind of jump as well.”
