Ankara, June 1 (IANS) Turkey’s basketball powerhouse Anadolu Efes announced Saturday that the club has agreed terms for European basketball legend Dusan Ivkovic to take over as head coach.
Ivkovic, who was included in Euroleague’s 50 Greatest Contributors, is among the most decorated coaches in the continent’s history. The Serb is the only manager to win all four major European titles, and was named “the dean of European coaches” on the Euroleague website, reported Xinhua.
However, Ivkovic faces the hard task of rejuvenating Anadolu Efes, an indisputable giant of Turkish basketball that has enjoyed little glory in the last decade.
The Istanbul-based club said it would officially unveil Ivkovic in a ceremony June 3.
