However, the club's general manager Zoran Savic was quick to deny any rumors surrounding the transfer. "I've never talked to him," he told SportKlub Srbija during the team's birthday event.

Although Savic denied showing interest in the player, head coach Zeljko Obradovic admitted that there is a need to be filled on the roster.

"The most important thing is that we turn to what the Partizan team is at this moment," the legendary specialist said. "The fact is that we are talking most importantly about the position of the playmaker and that there are huge problems. We will look for solutions through practices and matches for some players to cover that position. We will see how it will look, and then we will make some decisions in relation to that."

Partizan are coming back to the EuroLeague after an 8-year break. The club will start the season against ALBA Berlin on Friday. The game is scheduled to start at 20:00 CET.
