EuroLeague is stirring with rumors about player movements for the upcoming season, and it looks like the first deals are being struck. While nothing is officially confirmed, it’s widely known that Mike James has no intention of staying with Monaco.
According to Spanish media, James has already agreed on all terms and is set to sign with Barcelona. Mundo Deportivo reports that James could join the Catalan club despite the impending departure of Javi Pascual, the coach.
Barcelona has had a turbulent season, finishing as the play-in champion and knocking out Partizan Belgrade before losing to Monaco. The latter also had a tumultuous season, marred by financial difficulties.
The all-time leading scorer in EuroLeague history, James has chosen to sign with Barcelona, which could be a significant boost for the team. Before James, Barcelona is rumored to have secured the arrivals of Mo Alie-Cox, Josh Newkirk, and Oliver Enkamue, who made waves at the European Championships with the Finnish national team.
The only question left is whether Ibon Navarro or Vasileios Spanoulis will be the point guard for Barcelona, as both have worked with James and had both warm and cold periods in their relationships with him.
