Meanwhile, Aris Barkas from Eurohoops reports that Campazzo received a 2-year€4.3 million offer from the Serbian powerhouse.

The Argentinian guard would earn€1.8 million for the 2022-23 season and€2.5 million for the 2023-24 season.

According to Barkas, Real Madrid have 9 days to decide whether they will match Crvena Zvezda's offer.

"As far as Crvena Zvezda is concerned, we work in such a manner that only if and when we finish some work, we announce it," Covic told Djordje Matic from Mozzart Sport on Monday. "I don't know why someone is in a hurry and cares more about us than we ourselves. There is no reason for celebration nor for sadness."

Campazzo still owes Real Madrid €2.6 million of the €6 million release clause that the Argentinian agreed to pay for leaving the club for the NBA. Barkas reports that a significant amount of that sum would be paid by the contract signed with the Serbian team.

However, the Argentinian guard resists returning to Madrid due to Spain's taxation system and the remaining buyout fee that still roams from the time he went to the NBA in 2020.

If Campazzo signed with Real, he would be taxed like a regular Spanish citizen and have to pay a steep 45% tax rate. Otherwise, he'd have to pay only a 22% tax rate.

Campazzo was recently waived by the Dallas Mavericks. In 8 games this season (52 minutes played), Campazzo averaged 1.3 points and 1.1 assists.

Before a short-lived stint with the Mavs, he played for the Denver Nuggets and registered 5.1 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 3.4 assists over 65 last season's matches.

Two-time EuroLeague champ joined the Nuggets in November 2020. He has competed in a total of 138 NBA games and posted 5.3 points and 3.3 assists.

Before the NBA debut, Campazzo spent five years in Real Madrid. In the 2020-21 EuroLeague season, Facu averaged 9.3 points, 2.5 rebounds, 6.7 assists, and two steals in 25 minutes.
