Salvation achieved, at home Openjobmetis Varese we think about the last match, which is important for the possible participation in the European Cups, but also about the future of key players such as Nico Mannion. The Red Mamba arrived in the current season with an annual contract with an option for the next one in his favor for EuroLeague clubs or for the NBA. According to what was reported by Varese Sport, Luis Scola’s company is already ready to put a new deal worth 400 thousand euros on the table, but speaking to the local website, Mannion does not guarantee anything: “I do not know now. I like Varese a lot, I have rediscovered the joy of playing basketball here and it has a special place in my heart. Let’s see what will happen, this environment is perfect but, I repeat, I don’t know what I’ll do yet.”
Among the topics covered also that of the national team. Mannion will certainly be on the Italbasket roster at the San Juan Pre-Olympic. “Yes. I am very happy to return to the national team with my teammates, coach Pozzecco, all the staff and now let’s try to go to the Paris Olympics.”
