The EuroLeague, with its official position, denied the reports of the last few hours that spoke of a request by the Lithuanian Wolves to declare Dubai as the headquarters for the games that they will play as the home team in the EuroCup.

As the organizer emphasized, he has not received a corresponding request from Wolves, therefore all games of the 2023-24 EuroCup season will be played normally in Vilnius as originally planned EuroLeague states that if it receives an attack on this issue in the future, it will review it like any other team.

In response to recent articles published in several media outlets following the publication of a post by the Dubai Media Office on the X social media platform stating that Wolves will play all their home games in Dubai, EuroLeague Basketball would like to clarify the following:

• EuroLeague Basketball has never received a request from the Wolves to play one of their EuroCup home games on Dubai soil.

• Therefore, all Wolves’ 2023-24 EuroCup home games will be played in Vilnius as already planned.

• If an official request is received, EuroLeague Basketball will properly assess any implications not only for Wolves Vilnius, but for the entire EuroCup.

Roberto Gallinat (27 years old, 1.93 metres) will wear Aris’ jersey in the 2023/24 season. The news was announced by the “yellow” OEM with a tweet on its official Twitter account to confirm the information that spoke of an agreement.

The announcement in detail:

“KAE ARIS announces the acquisition of Roberto Gallinat for the 2023-24 season.

Roberto Gallinat was born on December 29, 1996 and is 1.93 m tall. He will compete in the shooting guard position.

New ARIS acquisition Midea began his collegiate career at South Plains College, where he studied from 2015 to 2017, averaging 10.6 points and 3.4 rebounds. From 2017-19, he visited and played for the Pacific Tigers, averaging 14.9 points and 2.9 rebounds per game.

In 2019, he started his pro career in Denmark and Horsens with 18.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 42.3% on three points. In the 2020–21 season, he played for Italy’s Roma and averaged 17.1 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2 assists, with 38% coming from the three-point line.

In 2021, he joined Turkey on behalf of Gialova, recording 16.1 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.9 assists. Last year he started the season in Nancy, France, where he averaged 9.5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.9 assists. He first came to Greece mid-season on behalf of Karditsa. He had a very good season in the Basket League with 20.7 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 36.2% from 6.75.

In the summer, the new athlete from ARIS Midea competed in China and Jiangxi and is now part of Yannis Kastritis’ team.

Three of Aris’ transfers this year have met Thessaloniki, with Roberts Blumbergs, Manny Bates and Marcus Carr arriving in Greece on behalf of the Yellows.

The three players have been announced by the club and, as announced by Aris, are in our country without failing to make their first statements on the team’s official website.

Bloomberg’s statements in detail: “I don’t look too far ahead, I try to focus on the moment. I want to watch each game individually and try to get as many wins as possible. I had a pivotal conversation with the trainer that made me decide to come to Mars. I also saw a lot of videos of the world of Mars and the atmosphere in the stadium and that convinced me to accept.

I can attack from a distance, but also close to the basket. I like to play defense, I can play all positions from ‘1’ to ‘5’ defensively and do whatever the coach asks me to do.”

Manny Bates said: “I look forward to competing with Aris at the highest level. My main trait is good defense. I have seen many videos of the world of Mars and the crazy atmosphere and I want to experience it. I’m a pretty good blocker, I want to energize the team and do whatever it takes to win. I always play with power.”

“I know our fans are passionate and I love that. It will take me some time to settle in, it’s my first time competing outside of the US, but I’ll get better with time and races.”

Marcus Carr in turn said: “I’m looking forward to being here, meeting my teammates and seeing the city. I can’t wait for the season to start. I had an adventure with my luggage but the matter will be resolved by tomorrow. I learned a lot about the team, I know they have passionate fans and play in a competitive league. I also know that Aris was played by Elaiza Mitrou-Long, my friend. Last week we talked and he told me everything about the world, the city, the team.

I’ve seen several videos of Aris fans being crazy about the team. And on my social media I’ve had a lot of messages from fans of the team giving me encouragement ahead of the new season. The stadium is one of the best in Greece, I can’t wait to meet them and play in front of them.”
