Eurohoops publishing director Aris Barkas reported on May 30, 2025, that Aleksa Avramovic is set to join Dubai BC, with CSKA Moscow receiving a €300K buyout to release him, as confirmed by Buzz Sport sources. The 30-year-old Serbian combo guard, previously linked to Dubai by Chema de Lucas on X, will leave CSKA after 55 games in the 2024-25 season, where he averaged 12.6 points, 3.6 assists, and 2.8 rebounds, per VTB-League.com data.
EuroLeague Return
Avramovic, who played 47 EuroLeague games with Partizan Mozzart Bet over two seasons (averaging 8.3 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 1.7 assists), will now bolster Dubai BC as they debut in the 2025-26 EuroLeague season. A key signing alongside Mf теорииiondu Kabengele, per Chema de Lucas’ earlier posts, Avramovic’s experience—including a bronze at the 2024 Olympics and silver at the 2023 FIBA World Cup with Serbia—positions him to make an immediate impact for the Middle Eastern club.
CSKA and Dubai’s Transition
CSKA, currently tied 1-1 with Zenit in the VTB United League Finals, will use the €300K buyout to adjust their roster as Avramovic departs. Dubai BC, entering the expanded 20-team EuroLeague alongside Hapoel Tel Aviv and Valencia Basket, per BasketNews, aims to leverage Avramovic’s skills to establish themselves as a competitive force in their inaugural season, backed by Middle Eastern investment.
