In this way, Sanli, 31, says goodbye after two seasons with the Catalan powerhouse. The Turkish center joined Barca in the summer of 2021, coming off a EuroLeague title with Anadolu Efes.

During these two years, he has played a total of 148 games, divided into 73 in the ACB League, 68 in the Euroleague, 4 in the Copa del Rey, 2 in the Spanish Super Cup and 1 in the Catalan League .

This past season, Sanli averaged 7.3 points, 3.4 rebounds and a PIR of 7.7 over 16 minutes in domestic competition. Despite his 213 centimeters, Sanli was a great external threat as evidenced by the 40% success rate from the triple. However, his numbers were a bit worse in the EuroLeague: 6.2 points and 3.3 rebounds in 15 minutes of playing time.

He also won a Catalan League (2022), a Copa del Rey (2022) and an Endesa League (2023).

Sanli can now activate his deal with Fenerbahce and return to Turkey after two years.
