Mirza Begić is back in Ljubljana and has agreed to sign with the club from Stožice Arena until the end of the 2019/20 season.

216 cm tall Begić has started the 2017/18 season in Iran, where he played for Petrochimi Bandar Imam Harbour. Especially because he missed his hometown and because of the love for the club for which he already played in the 2002/03, 2007/08m 2008/09 and 2014/15 seasons, he decided to return to Ljubljana, where he is living with his family. Begić used to play for Cedevita Zagreb in the previous season and before that he also played for the teams such as Real Madrid, Olympiacos, Bilbao, Laboral Kutxa and Žalgiris in his career.

Mirza Begić se je vrnil v Petrol Olimpijo

Petrol Olimpija se je pred sklepnim delom sezone 2017/2018 v Ligi ABA okrepila z Mirzo Begićem, ki se tako vrača v Zmajevo gnezdo.

V Ljubljano se je vrnil 32-letni center Mirza Begić, ki je z ljubljanskim klubom sklenil pogodbo do konca sezone 2019/20.

216 cm visoki Begić je sezono 2017/2018 začel v Iranu, kjer je do novega leta nastopal za Petrochimi Bandar Imam Harbour. Predvsem zaradi domotožja in pripadnosti klubu za katerega je igral že v sezonah 2002/03, 2007/08, 2008/09 in kratek čas v 2014/15 se je odločil, da se vrne v Ljubljano, kjer tudi živi z družino. Begić je v pretekli sezoni nastopal za zagrebško Cedevito, prej pa je v svoji bogati karieri nastopal še za zveneče klube kot so Real Madrid, Olympiacos, Bilbao, Laboral Kutxa Vitoria in Žalgiris.
