He only arrived a year ago – and is already gone again: Pablo Laso is resigning as coach of FC Bayern basketball for family reasons. He even already has a new club.
“Pablo’s personal decision came as a surprise to us, but we respect him very much as a coach and personality and would like to thank him for his work and great commitment in the past, successful season,” said Managing Director Marko Pesic.
Shortly afterwards, the Spanish first division club Baskonia announced that Laso had been hired as their new coach until 2027. Laso is thus returning to his hometown club. The ex-professional started his active career at Baskonia.
Double won
The former successful coach of Real Madrid only joined the Munich team a year ago. In his first and only season, he won the double of BBL Cup and championship with Bayern. “We wish Pablo all the best for the future, and not just because of the double win he will always be connected to us,” said Pesic.
The club will provide information about further personnel planning in a timely manner, it said. Pesic is therefore likely already working hard on the search for a new coach.
