Will Kyrie Thomas strengthen Maccabi Tel Aviv?
Spain also understands: there is a high probability that the move will happen.
Last night (Saturday) it was announced that the 25-year-old guard (1.91) who belongs to Bilbao is close to joining the Yellows, and after the team's game yesterday, the team's coach Alex Mumbro addressed this possibility.
"Currently our player Kyrie has an exit clause and we are considering the appeal in the affirmative. We have to wait and see what happens, but as long as there is no other announcement, he remains."
According to Mumbra, Thomas, who has managed to make only two appearances for the team since signing in November, is in an advanced stage of recovery from the injury he suffered, and will be able to return to the pitches within a few weeks.
"We hope he can return as soon as possible, and hope he can help us as much as possible. I estimate he will return in a few weeks. As for his future, it is still unclear, but I trust the club to do the right thing," he said.
