Partizan has officially announced the signing of center Bruno Fernando, following his departure from Real Madrid. The move brings a much-needed physical presence to the Serbian team’s frontcourt and marks a new chapter for the Angolan player in the EuroLeague.
✍️ Partizan Secures a New Center
Partizan has strengthened its roster by signing Bruno Fernando. The club confirmed the deal on Sunday, adding significant depth under the basket for coach Zeljko Obradovic’s team. After being released by Real Madrid, Fernando’s next stop is Belgrade, where he is expected to play a key role.
🏀 A Player with NBA Experience
At 27, Fernando brings valuable experience from his time in the NBA, where he played for the Atlanta Hawks, Houston Rockets, and Toronto Raptors. This move to Partizan offers him a fresh opportunity to showcase his skills and strength in top-tier European basketball and establish himself as a dominant force in the paint.
🔄 Roster Impact for Both Teams
This transfer has a ripple effect on both clubs. For Partizan, it fills a crucial gap, as coach Zeljko Obradovic has been seeking a big man since the summer. Until now, Tyrique Jones was the only true center on the team. On the other hand, Fernando’s exit from Real Madrid frees up a roster spot, which may lead the Spanish club to search for a new center in the transfer market.
