In the person of Raul Neto, Barcelona has found a replacement for Nico Laprovitola, but the matter is stuck for now, as reported by MundoDeportivo.
It seems that Barcelona have settled on Raul Neto to fill the void left behind by the unfortunate Nico Laprovitola, who will be on the pitch for the entire season.
The 32-year-old Brazilian guard, who has 435 regular-season NBA games under his belt, looks like an excellent option for the Blaugrana, as he also holds an Italian passport and therefore will not take a foreigner’s place in the Liga Endesa.
Despite this, the case of the signing of contracts between Neto and Barcelona is…stuck, as the report states Mundo Deportivosince the team officials express second thoughts about the player’s physical and playing condition.
We remind you that Neto was injured in MundoBasket 2023, as a result of which he missed the entire last season and ultimately never played with Fenerbahce. Now, he is back in his native Brazil and playing with Pineiros. In 5 games, Neto has 16.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 5 assists per 20.4 minutes of participation.
It is more likely that Barcelona will put clauses in the player’s contract in order to be covered in the event of an injury or a possible underperformance, as they did with Jabari Parker in the first place.
