Maccabi Tel Aviv today officially announced the extension of Angelo Cloiaro's contract for another two years, with an option for a third season. The forward agreed to extend his contract even before the playoff quarterfinal series against Hapoel Tel Aviv, but the Yellows chose to announce it only now, two weeks before returning to official training.

"One of the tasks we set ourselves was to keep Angelo on the team," coach Yannis Sapropoulos told Cloiaro to the official website. "He is an impressive player, with a high work ethic that is very suitable for Maccabi's system. From the moment I arrived at the club I moved him from position 4 to 3 and he gave a lot to the whole team. It was important for me and the management that we extend his contract. It is important and we will continue to fight together for Maccabi. "

"I am happy to return to my Maccabi family," Angelo Cloiaro told the club's official website after the signing. "We have a goal to continue from the point where we stopped last season. See you all soon. And what about some message to the fans? 'Cloiaro, Cloiaro, Ola Ola Ola;)'".

Cloiaro (31, 2.03) joined Maccabi Tel Aviv in the summer of 2018 on a one-season contract with an option for a second season. In his first season in the Euroleague he recorded 7.4 points and 4.8 rebounds while in the league he recorded 5.8 points and 3.6 rebounds.

Last summer, the people of Maccabi Tel Aviv thought that the option should not be exercised, but the professional team chose to do so, and Cloiaro remained in the yellow. A few weeks later, Maccabi Tel Aviv informed him that he was allowed to find a team, but this did not help and Cloiaro remained in the team's training. During the month of November, due to the injury blow to Maccabi, he was given the opportunity in the Euroleague, and with the return of the league from the Corona crisis, he also registered for the league games. In the Euroleague, Cloiaro averaged 5.6 points and 2.8 rebounds this season. In the league he flourished with 12.7 points and 4.6 rebounds and in the playoffs contributed 8.4 points and 5.2 rebounds on average.

This week, Maccabi Tel Aviv announced the extension of John Dibertolomao's contract for another two years, and the signing of Oz Blazer and Chris Jones. The new players and those who have signed new contracts join Yuval Sussman, Elijah Bryant, Tyler Dorsey, Scotty Wilbkin, Othello Hunter, Dori Sahar and Sandy Cohen.
