After the agreement reached with Jeff Brooks on a contract extension, Gigi Datome is Olimpia Milano’s next big target.
Ettore Messina’s goal is to close the “Italian” roster of AX Armani Exchange with the forward of Fenerbahce.
Datome, in Fenerbahce since 2015, has a contract till 2022 with the Turkish powerhouse without opt out clause in the summer.
Milano has expressed serious interest in the captain of Italbasket and the contacts have intensified in the recent days, but his future remains in the hands of Fenerbahce.
As of now, the expectation is that Datome is still committed to remain in Istanbul more than returning to Italy but the situation in Fenerbahce is not clear yet and Zeljko Obradovic’s decision about his future is going to influence the decision of their top players.
If Milano doesn’t sign Datome, the target would be Derrick Williams, another player of Fenerbahce, whose contract will expire on June 30.
