Virtus Segafredo Bologna have locked up swingman Isaia Cordinier on a new contract until the end of the 2024-25 season. Cordinier, 26, is coming off his debut campaign in the EuroLeague, in which he averaged 6.6 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists and a 6.3 PIR across 19 appearances.

The Frenchman, who won the EuroCup title with Virtus in the 2021-22 season, has spent the last two years in Bologna and will now continue to wear the team's jersey for the next two seasons.

Cordinier ended up missing the final part of last season due to a foot injury he sustained in Round 23 against LCLC ASVEL Villeurbanne. That injury came at the worst possible time for the 26-year-old, as he had reached double digits for points in three straight games between Rounds 21 and 23, having scored 14 against FC Bayern Munich, 11 against Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade and 10 against ASVEL.

Before that, the only times that Cordinier scored 10 or more points were the 12 he recorded against Real Madrid in Round 5 and the season-high 15 he had against Valencia Basket in Round 8. Heading into the next campaign, Cordinier will be hoping to take his game to the next level in Europe's premier club basketball competition.
