According to SDNA, the big man was presented with an offer by FC Barcelona.

Hernangomez has previously played for Real Madrid from 2011 until 2016 before departing to the NBA, and the club still holds his right in the competition. Due to Spanish Liga Endesa's rules, Real Madrid now have 10 days to possibly match the offer Barca presented and bring the player to their side. Otherwise, Hernangomez is set to go to their rivals.

The 29-year-old has previously officially communicated his intention to return to the competition next season.

Last season in the NBA, Hernangomez played in 38 games for the New Orleans Pelicans, averaging 6.9 points and 4.7 rebounds per game in 12 minutes of playing time.

Hernangomez earned the EuroBasket 2022 title with the Spanish national team last September and was later named the tournament's MVP.
