The Berlin boy with the archenemy!
Seeing Niels Giffey (31) in a Bayern jersey was worse than bankruptcy for many Alba fans at 77:79 in the Euroleague. Why didn’t Alba bring him back in the summer?
Manager Marco Baldi (60) at Magentasport: “There is always a place for him with us, we told him that a hundred times. But what doesn’t work is that five minutes before the start of the season, when the team is ready, you say: ‘Now maybe I could come, but only maybe. I’ll have to wait and see if there’s anything else available.’ That’s not how it works.”
