Kazan UNICS President Evgeny Bogachev spoke about the pressure on the team’s head coach Velimir Perasovic in Croatia. His words are quoted by Match TV.
Bogachev noted that they had previously discussed the extension of the contract with the specialist, but the specifics in the negotiations had not yet been reached. “Of course we want to leave him. The coach has his own circumstances, let’s call them family. Plus attitude to us abroad. Perasovic is from Croatia, there is a certain policy there, pressure is put on the family, ”the functionary said. He added that Perasovich really appreciates the attitude towards him from the management and fans of the club.
On May 6, UNICS became the champion of the VTB United League for the 2022/2023 season, beating Lokomotiv in the final series. The confrontation ended with the score 4:1 in favor of Kazan. For UNICS, this is the first ever victory in the national championship. Previously, the team won silver medals six times and bronze medalists eight times.
Perasović took over the club in 2021. Previously, he coached the Spanish “Basque Country”, the Turkish “Anadolu Efes” and the Croatian national team.
