Bàsquet Girona guard Maxi Fjellerup underwent an arthroscopy this Thursday, effectively ending his season in Girona after appearing in only three games during the current campaign.

The Argentine player is the longest-serving member of the current squad and the only remaining player from the 2022 promotion team, alongside former captain and current assistant coach Albert Sàbat. His absence leaves the team with eleven professional players.

"It is bad news, he will practically be out for the entire season. The club is always open to improving the team."

Moncho Fernández · Head Coach
Head coach Moncho Fernández confirmed that the club is looking for a replacement with a similar profile to Fjellerup. Regarding other injuries, Juan Fernández has been ruled out for the next game, while there is optimism regarding Sergi Martínez's availability.
