Monaco left with the “double” from SEF, beating Olympiakos 92-97. After the match for the 7th matchday of the Euroleague, the coach of the Monegasques, Vasilis Spanouliswas at the press conference and – among other things – was asked about his future in national basketball.
More specifically, Vasilis Spanoulis was asked about whether he will be on the bench of the National Basketball Team in the November “window”, in the games against Romania (27.11.2025, home) and Portugal (30.11.2025, away) ahead of the 2027 World Cup qualifiers.
“You will find out soon,” replied Spanoulis with a smile, who led the national basketball team to the bronze medal at Eurobasket 2025, the first in 16 years.
According to the report, the problem that existed regarding the permission that Monaco would give to the Greek coach – to continue in the national team – has been overcome and Vassilis Spanoulis will be on the blue and white bench in the “windows”, with the aim of qualifying the team for the World Cup in Qatar (2027).
