The coaching staff has reinforced its ranks by bringing back fitness coach Krševan Sorić to the club. Lovro Gnjidić will join the rest of the squad a bit later, since he got the permission of coach Jovanović to join the squad on 6 August. Besides him, Vito Vujović and Filip Kalajžić are with the Croatia U18 national team and will join the rest of the squad after the end of the European Challenger.

Two players, that currently do not have a contract with the club, Josip Popić and Marko Ramljak, are also practicing with the team in the Dažen Petrović Arena.

At the start of the training camp, Cibona head coach told: “We have managed to bring in all of the reinforcements, that we have wanted and now it is their task to demonstrate their quality and talent, for which they have been brought here and to adapt to the system of work, teammates and club and to convert all of that into good performances on court. We will spend the entire preseason period in our arena, where we have all of the necessary conditions for good work. We also have scheduled quality preseason games with strong opponents. We will be here most of the time with an exception of a few preseason games on other venues. I hope that we will be ready for the first round of the ABA League season after the end of the preseason."

Cibona započela pripreme za novu sezonu

U KC Dražen Petrović su pod vodstvom trenera Vladimira Jovanovića počele pripreme za sezonu 2021/22.

Stručni stožer se pojačao novim/starim kondicijskim trenerom Krševanom Sorićem. Od igrača će se nešto kasnije pridružiti Lovro Gnjidić koji je od trenera Jovanovića dobio slobodno do 6. kolovoza jer je imao reprezentativne obaveze sve do 26. srpnja. Osim njega, s U18 reprezentacijom su trenutno Vito Vujović i Filip Kalajžić pa će se prvoj ekipi pridružiti nakon European Challengera. 

Treninzima su za pripremni period priključena i dva igrača koja nisu pod ugovorom, Josip Popić i Marko Ramljak.

Vladimir Jovanović, trener Cibone uz okupljanje Cibonine momčadi rekao je: „Uspjeli smo dovesti sva pojačanja koja smo htjeli i sad je na njima da pokažu tu kvalitetu i talent zbog kojih su dovedeni i da se što prije prilagode na sistem rada, suigrače i klub, i da to u narednom periodu pretoče u dobru igru i rezultate na terenu. Cijeli pripremni period ćemo odraditi u našoj dvorani gdje imamo sve potrebne uvjete za dobar rad. Imamo zakazane kvalitetne pripremne utakmice sa snažnim protivnicima. Uglavnom ćemo biti ovdje, a izuzetak će biti te pripremne utakmice vani."
