The upcoming mini-tournament, scheduled to commence on September 17, is confirmed to feature the Stambulo “Anadolu Efes” team. This participating team will compete against three Russian clubs, and the roster will also include the Bosnian-Herzegovina team, Aleksandrovac “Igokea.”
While the previous year’s tournament was held in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, this year’s venue will once again be Moscow. Over the five-year history of the tournament, the Stambulo “Fenerbahce” team has participated.
It is noted that Fenerbahce’s involvement predates the tenure of Šarūnas Jasikevičius with the club. Furthermore, the Turkish club visited Russia in 2023. During that time, the team’s head coach was Dimitris Itoudis, who possessed extensive experience working in Russia.
The inclusion of Anadolu Efes suggests a continued high level of competition in the tournament. Observers tracking the history of the team’s participation note that Fenerbahce’s presence in the tournament was established before significant coaching changes, highlighting the club’s enduring connection to international play.
