The big man had previously agreed to a contract with the Catalan club, but Olimpia Milano eventually paid compensation to release him from that agreement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Tornike Shengelia also contributed to the total, paying his own buyout to Barcelona in order to complete his move to Dubai Basketball.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Shengelia will reunite in Dubai with Xavi Pascual, who also left Barcelona after a buyout was paid for his departure.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Barcelona also received compensation connected to Nikola Kusturica and Sayon Keita, who left for the NCAA. Additional payments came from players already competing in the American college system who still owed the club portions of the buyouts related to their original contracts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Juani Marcos was reportedly the only player to leave Barcelona before the end of his agreement without generating any financial compensation.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the various operations allowed Barcelona to collect more than \u20ac3 million from buyouts alone during the offseason.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The departures of Xavi Pascual, Tornike Shengelia and Moses Wright were among the moves that generated significant financial compensation for the club<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":145,"featured_media":485483,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_spbk_hide_featured":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[34,82],"tags":[],"rumors":[134],"typology":[21],"posizionamento":[],"class_list":["post-508944","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-acb","category-euroleague","rumors-basket-rumors","typology-rumors"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/02\/STP02588.jpg","digistream_id":0,"digistream":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/508944","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/145"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=508944"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/508944\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/485483"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=508944"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=508944"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=508944"},{"taxonomy":"rumors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rumors?post=508944"},{"taxonomy":"typology","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/typology?post=508944"},{"taxonomy":"posizionamento","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posizionamento?post=508944"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
