Greek and Lithuanian reports say clubs are expected to pick his replacement during the ECA meeting, with the shortlist down to two finalists

Paulius Motiejūnas’ position at the top of EuroLeague could be clarified this week, as the ECA leadership is set to meet in Barcelona on Tuesday, Jan. 27 and Wednesday, Jan. 28.

Reports indicate the replacement process is already deep into the final stage: after reviewing more than 30 candidates, the selection has reportedly been narrowed to two names to be presented to clubs for a final decision.

Among the names mentioned in the coverage is Chus Bueno, while one key point raised is the desire for a CEO with no direct ties to any single club—an issue linked to Motiejūnas’ past with Zalgiris Kaunas.
