  • Dubai sheikhs looking to form a Euroleague club and host Final Four

    According to some rumors, rich investors from Dubai would invest between 50 and 60 million euros per year so that instead of "Turkish Airlines" competition would be called "Emirates Airlines" in the future. Also, there is a possibility to see a club from Dubai in the competition.



    What is your opinion about that possibility?

      Of course the Saudis started their own golf league so this does not sound to far fetched. Dont know when the Turkish Airlines contract is up, but I am sure EL is looking for more money for the next one. Would Dubai be willing to play Maccabi?

        They would be happy to. Israel and OAE have good relations since signing Abraham Accords.

          Thanks. Was to lazy to google. This sounds like at least 4 years away though. If Russian teams are back in by then EL should be able to expand by a few teams.

              Western money don't like basket competitions so the Euroleague should pick any oriental investment. I hope the proposal will be approved.
