Diego Ocampo, the recently appointed coach of the Frankfurt-based team and who has already also worked at Barca B in the past, awaits him in Germany.
Badio represented Senegal in the recent Afrobasket, in which his team finished in third place thanks in part to the good performances of the 22-year-old. Last season, at Barca B, Badio averaged ten points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.3 steal over 28 games with 25 minutes of playing time. He also logged nine games for the first team.
