Partizan Looking for a Center to Strengthen Roster

Partizan secured another home victory in the EuroLeague, defeating Anadolu Efes in front of an energetic crowd at the Arena. The win was highlighted by an impressive 24-point performance from Sterling Brown, keeping Partizan’s home record perfect so far.

This successful start sets the stage for the team’s future plans, as coach Zeljko Obradovic discussed the possibility of adding a new player to the squad.

🔍 A Strategic Search for a Center

Following the victory, coach Zeljko Obradovic confirmed that the team is actively looking to sign a new center. He explained that this has been the plan since the summer, mainly as a precaution against injuries over the long and demanding season. “We are looking for a player,” he noted, emphasizing that the search is about adding necessary depth.

✅ Finding the Perfect Fit

Obradovic made it clear that the team isn’t in a hurry and will only sign a player who can genuinely improve the roster. “We are only interested in a tall player if we find someone who can help us,” he stated, adding that he is happy with his current squad. The transfer market remains open until March, giving them plenty of time to find the right person for the job.

💪 Building on a Strong Start

This careful approach to recruitment comes as Partizan enjoys a solid start to their season. They currently hold a 2-1 record in the EuroLeague and also began their ABA League campaign with a win against Krka. The search for a new player is a strategic move to maintain their momentum and add depth for the challenges ahead.
