Tony Parker confirms roster overhaul at Asvel: “Still aiming for EuroLeague competitiveness”

Sako to Valencia, Maledon signs in Madrid, Roberson unlikely to stay

Tony Parker has confirmed a rebuilding phase for ASVEL Villeurbanne. In a long interview with Le Progrès, the team president listed multiple departures: Neal Sako is heading to Valencia after using his EuroLeague out clause, while Théo Maledon has reportedly signed a “big contract” in Madrid.

Paris Lee and Joffrey Lauvergne are considered too expensive to retain, and André Roberson, who Parker “would love to keep”, is unlikely to stay due to rising EuroLeague salaries and the influence of Dubai-based teams.

ASVEL still has De Colo, Lighty, Ndiaye, Jackson, Ajinça (NBA clause), and Atamna under contract. “We must be patient,” Parker said. “But our goals remain the same: Top 3 in France and competitiveness in the EuroLeague.”
