Barcelona finished the Eurolegaue regular season in style (9-1 record) but it seems that coach Pasqual and the organization want to be sure about the depth and the talent of their roster, no matter what may happen! The 25 years old shooting guard Edwin Jackson signed with Barca and the fact that the deal is finalized, was announced first on Saturday night by the official account of the French League.
Barcelona reached a deal with his team ASVEL and the buy out which will be paid by the Spanish club is 300.000 euros. Few minutes after the Tweet of the Pro A League Barcelona also announced officially the signing of the first scorer of the French League (18,8 points average) until the end of the season.
Juan Carlos Navarro is already back, Brad Oleson and Alex Abrines are expected to return during the first gamedays of the Top16 – maybe even earlier – and Edwin Jackson is coming to add one more solid solution to the talented current roster of the Catalans. The new player of Barcelona commented on his new status: “It’s hard for me to leave ASVEL, I have lived incredible moments with my team. On the other hand, I am very happy for my new challenge. It’s something special to be in a club like Barcelona”.
