Club Joventut Badalona<\/span><\/span><\/strong> have officially exercised their option to extend the contract of Henri Drell<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, keeping the Estonian forward with the club until June 30, 2026.<\/p>\n

Drell joined Joventut last September on a temporary deal, which was later renewed through January 2026. His seamless adaptation to the team and consistent performances have now earned him a further extension, ensuring he will finish the season with the Penya.<\/p>\n

The Estonian has appeared in 22 official games for Joventut and is currently enjoying the best statistical season of his professional career in the Liga ACB<\/span><\/span><\/strong>. Thanks to his versatility \u2014 capable of playing both at the forward (3) and power forward (4) positions \u2014 Drell will continue to be an important tactical asset for the Badalona side.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
