Done deal between Baskonia and Barca for Hanga

By Nikos Varlas/ varlas@eurohoops.net

Almost one month after the decision of Hanga to sign the contract with Baskonia, which thanks to the “tanteo” right matched the offer made by Barcelona to the player, the two clubs agreed to a buyout.

This buyout is the “profit” of Baskonia for matching Hanga’s contract and it’s not linked after all to the possible loan of any football player from Barcelona to Alaves. Baskonia will get 400.000 euros for letting the player go.

All three sides played until the very end their cards in a very nerve-breaking poker game and Hanga finally moves to Barcelona, which was interested on him since last summer.

With all this said and done, Hanga will be also able to join his national team for the upcoming Eurobasket, after passing the medical exams by his new team. Τhe player will have the same contract that it was initially agreed with Barcelona, a three-year 7,5 m. euros deal.
