Alen Omić is back at Cedevita Olimpija

Cedevita Olimpija will enter the end of the 2023/24 season reinforced by Alen Omić. The latter last wore the Ljubljana jersey last season, and spent the first half of the current season in China and France. Born in Tuzla, the 216-centimeter-tall big man wore the jersey of the Ljubljana club for the first time between 2012 and 2015, during which time he won the Slovenian Super Cup title twice and the Slovenian Cup champion once with the Dragons. In the jersey of Cedevita Olimpija, which he joined in November 2021, Omić won two titles of the Slovenian National Champions, two titles of the Slovenian Cup Winners and one title of the Slovenian Super Cup Winners.

During his career, Alen Omić wore the jerseys of many famous clubs, including Gran Canaria, Anadolu Efes, Unicaja Malaga, Hapoel Jerusalem, Crvena zvezda Meridianbet, Budućnost VOLI, Olimpia Milan, Joventut Badalona, and before his first return to Ljubljana he was part of JL Bourg. In Alen's showcase, we can also find the EuroCup Championship trophy from 2017 and the Serbian national champion title from 2018.

After leaving Ljubljana, he started the 2023/24 season with the Chinese team Guangxi Rhinos, and continued with Paris Metropolitans 92. In France, he averaged 15.6 points, 10.1 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game. With an average valuation of 21.4, he was the most efficient player of the French National Championship.

"Even though I'm coming back to Cedevita Olimpija, I feel like I never really left. I have a family, a wife and a child who are with me off the court, and I have another family, the Dragon family, which Cedevita Olimpija represents. I can't wait to join my teammates in practices and matches, and I believe that we will do our best to achieve the goals set before the start of the season in domestic competitions and in the AdmiralBet ABA League," Alen Omić said upon returning to the Dragons’ jersey.

V Tuzli rojeni, 216 centimetrov visoki velikan, je dres ljubljanskega kluba prvič nosil med letoma 2012 in 2015, z Zmaji pa je takrat dvakrat osvojil naslov slovenskega superpokalnega in enkrat naslov slovenskega pokalnega prvaka. V dresu Cedevite Olimpije, ki se ji je pridružil novembra 2021, je Omić osvojil dva naslova slovenskega državnega prvaka, dva naslova slovenskega pokalnega prvaka in en naslov slovenskega superpokalnega prvaka.

"Čeprav se vračam v Cedevito Olimpijo, imam občutek, kot da nikoli nisem resnično odšel. Imam družino, ženo in otroka, ki so z menoj izven igrišča, in imam drugo družino, Zmajevo družino, ki jo predstavlja Cedevita Olimpija. Komaj čakam, da se pridružim soigralcem na treningih in tekmah, in verjamem, da bomo dali vse od sebe, da v slovenskih tekmovanjih in v regionalni ligi dosežemo cilje, zastavljene pred začetkom sezone," je ob vrnitvi v dres Zmajev povedal Alen Omić.
