The Serbs have announced the signing of Freddie Gillespie, who has left Bayern. The Greek coach explained that he expected stability, energy and good defense from him.

Sphairopoulos also commented on the scenarios that Mike Tobey could leave after Gillespie’s arrival, stating that the 29-year-old is important for the team.

About the newly acquired Freddie Gillespie:

“We looked for options on the market, some players didn’t want to come, others wanted to, and one of the best who had that desire was Freddie (Sr. Gillespie), that’s why we signed him. We expect him to come with stability, energy and good defense. Of course he is a player who knows the EuroLeague very well. I don’t think his arrival will have an impact on the players who are here because everyone has their role and he is an addition that will help us.”

For the scenarios where Gillespie’s arrival is related to Toby’s departure:

“Mike is an important player for us and a big part of our game on offense and defense. We need him to have a good day so he can help the team achieve their goals in the upcoming game. Both in defense and in attack.”

For the possibility of further reinforcement:

“We are open to seeing if there is an opportunity to sign a player who can make a difference. I’ll say it again: I don’t want to bring in a player just to get him. The market is overcrowded, everyone.” We are looking for players and the good players usually have a contract. Therefore, it is not easy to recruit them as reinforcements. We will do our best to attract those who can help the team with the help of the management and the chairman. If we find him, there is a possibility of signing him.
