“My only intention was to stay”
MADRID, 20 Jun. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The basketball player Mario Hezonja will continue playing for Real Madrid by betting on his continuity in the white club, after being a free agent for a few days and despite the strong rumors of a change of scenery to Barcelona, but the Croatian assured this Thursday that the white entity is its “home” and it will continue at the WiZink Center.
“My only intention was to stay, so I am happy to inform you that I will continue my journey in my house, in my Real Madrid and for a long time!” he expressed on his ‘X’ social network account.
Furthermore, the versatile 29-year-old forward assured that Real Madrid bet heavily on him in the past. “He believed in me when many did not, he cared about me and my family from the first day I arrived and made us feel at home,” he was sincere.
Hezonja, a free agent since his last game of the season, was free to decide where to play and was the first, after days of rumors and speculation, to comment on his future. “For now I have not reached any agreement with anyone, and as I have already said, you will always hear it from me first!” He added.
This season, the man from Dubrovnik averaged 10.6 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 22 minutes on the court in the Endesa League for an average rating of 11.2. In the Euroleague, which Real Madrid lost in the final, he averaged 13.5 points, 4.6 rebounds and a 13.3 efficiency.
