ASVEL<\/strong> are making progress on one of their next roster additions, with Marc-Owen Fodzo Dada<\/strong> emerging as a key target for the Villeurbanne club.<\/p>\n

The 19-year-old guard<\/strong>, who stands at 1.90m, currently plays for SLUC Nancy<\/strong> and had initially planned to continue his development in the NCAA<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

However, his move to the United States fell through after he failed to obtain the necessary eligibility to play in the NCAA, putting him back on the French market.<\/p>\n

Talks are advanced, but buyout remains an issue<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

According to Le Progr\u00e8s<\/em>, Fodzo Dada is expected to be ASVEL’s next signing. Information from BeBasket also indicates that negotiations between the parties are progressing well.<\/p>\n

There is still one important issue to resolve, however: the buyout that ASVEL will have to pay to Nancy<\/strong>, as Fodzo Dada remains under contract with the SLUC.<\/p>\n

His potential arrival would also address a specific need in Tony Parker’s<\/strong> roster construction.<\/p>\n

Following Mbaye Ndiaye’s move to Olympiacos<\/strong>, ASVEL currently have only three locally trained players (JFL)<\/strong> and still need to strengthen their perimeter rotation.<\/p>\n
