LNB denies Sasha Djordjevic’s comments, says French clubs will compete in BCL

“French clubs want to play in the BCL, besides Monaco,” Alain Deral said

In the wake of the comments from Virtus Bologna head coach Sasha Djordjevic, LNB president Alain Deral cleared the air in an interview with L’Equipe.

“I think he has always loved to provoke,” Deral said of Djordjevic. “French clubs want to play in the BCL, besides Monaco, which is EuroCup-bound. No club said they don’t want to play in the BCL.”
