Jonas Valanciunas is once again at the center of European basketball transfer speculation, with Zalgiris Kaunas reportedly prepared to bring the veteran center back to the continent. The Lithuanian team is already planning for the next season and sees Valanciunas as a key target for their roster. According to reports from Matteo Andreani, Zalgiris is ready to submit an official proposal to the 34-year-old, offering him a two-year contract with total earnings reaching €3.5 million.

Last summer, Valanciunas had also caught the attention of Panathinaikos, but his situation in the NBA changed when he was traded from the Sacramento Kings to the Denver Nuggets. Despite remaining in the United States, his future in the NBA is uncertain. The possibility of a return to Europe now appears more open than ever, with Zalgiris aiming to make one of the biggest moves of the summer in the Euroleague.

Valanciunas remains a strong name in the center position, and his situation is expected to dominate the transfer market in the coming weeks. If he leaves the NBA, Zalgiris is ready to capitalize on the opportunity to secure his services.
