The long-anticipated news has now been officially confirmed: Nando De Colo will hang up his sneakers this summer, marking the end of the current season as his last as a professional basketball player. The French veteran revealed his decision, emphasizing that it is final and not tied to Fenerbahçe’s performance or destiny in the EuroLeague.
“I never stated that I would retire only if we won the EuroLeague. But to be transparent, this will indeed be my final season. It’s something I’ve been contemplating for quite some time. It’s not about whether we win the EuroLeague or not. The truth is, I believe life is composed of moments and timing, and I feel this is the opportune moment for me to transition to something new.”
De Colo’s illustrious career, marked by numerous accolades and significant contributions to clubs like Fenerbahçe and CSKA Moscow, as well as the French national team, is set to conclude, allowing the seasoned player to embark on a new chapter.
