It was previously reported that one of the ways for the club to extend the deal - Saras winning the EuroLeague.

Before the match against Panathinaikos Athens, who will play without Dwayne Bacon and Mateusz Ponitka, on Thursday, Jasikevicius was asked about the situation.

"We have arranged a meeting to talk at the end of the season, and then we will talk or not," Giannis Stavroulakis of Gazzetta quoted Barcelona's head coach.
