According to turkish source, the Georgian coach has reached an agreement with the Turkish club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Markoishvili, 39, returns to Istanbul, where he also played from 2013 to 2014. Last season, he coached in EuroLeague with Monaco after beginning his coaching career as an assistant with the Georgian national team and later working as a head coach in his home country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bench change comes after three straight Galatasaray losses across domestic play and the Basketball Champions League. The club is also reportedly close to signing 24-year-old guard KJ Simpson to strengthen the backcourt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"tr\" dir=\"ltr\">Galatasaray MCT Technic\u2019te Manuchar Markoishvili d\u00f6nemi\u2026<br><br>Saso Filipovski \u00e7ok be\u011fenilse de kul\u00fcb\u00fcn\u00fcn buy-out istemesi sonucunda Galatasaray MCT Technic; ba\u015far\u0131ya a\u00e7 ve eski oyuncusu Markoishvili\u2019yi tercih etti.<br><br>Marko Pa\u015fa yan\u0131nda 1 asistan ile geliyor.
