In Spain, it is claimed: Following the new disputes that arose between the armored teams in the Euroleague and after the move to remove Jordi Bartomeu from the position of factory secretary, several teams, including Maccabi Tel Aviv, are considering retiring from the league and playing in the FIBA Champions League.
According to the Mundo Deportivo report, "the future of the Euroleague depends on the air" after last week's events, which led to Bartomeu being forced to leave his post at the end of the season after 22 years.
According to the report, Maccabi Tel Aviv along with Panathinaikos and Olympiacos are the main opponents of the Euroleague in its current format.
They are complaining about the grants and low revenues granted at the factory, and are interested in changing the economic model of the Euroleague in contrast to teams like Barcelona, Real Madrid and Basconia who have expressed a desire to make only minor changes when it comes to financial issues.
