Experienced French basketball player Thomas Heurtel could skip the European Championship because he is in negotiations with Zenit.
The French Basketball Federation has banned its players from playing for Russian clubs; otherwise, they will be expelled from the national team.
“I signed the document, otherwise I wouldn’t be here,” Thomas Heurtel, and then I denied myself and confirmed that there was interest from Russia:
My agent is in contact with clubs, Russian clubs if you really want to know. There are others who play in the Euroleague and the Spanish league. We will see what the future brings, “concluded Heurtel.
The local association confirmed that the national team was left without Livy Jean-Charles and Louis Labery, who signed for CSKA and Unix, respectively.
