AS Monaco Basket Parts Ways with Legendary Coach Sasa Obradovic

AS Monaco Basket has announced the departure of head coach Sasa Obradovic, marking the end of a transformative chapter in the team’s history. Over four years at the helm, the Serbian coach elevated the Roca Team to new heights, solidifying its reputation on both national and international stages.  

Joining the club in December 2020, Obradovic quickly established himself as a driving force behind AS Monaco Basket's success. Under his leadership, the team clinched multiple French league championships, a French Cup, and made a historic run to the EuroLeague Final Four. His dedication and disciplined approach reshaped the team’s performance, turning them into a formidable contender across Europe.  

The club expressed deep gratitude for Obradovic’s contributions in a heartfelt statement: “Sasa Obradovic’s name will forever be a part of our history. His commitment and tireless efforts have defined this incredible journey, and we sincerely thank him for everything he has accomplished.”  

With Obradovic’s departure, the team now looks to the future. Former professional basketball player and Georgian national Manuchar Markoishvili has been appointed as interim coach. Markoishvili, no stranger to high-level basketball, will guide the Roca Team during this transitional period while the search for a permanent successor is underway.  

As the Roca Team prepares for the next chapter, fans and players alike reflect on Obradovic’s legacy—a legacy built on perseverance, ambition, and excellence. His impact on the club’s trajectory ensures his name will remain a cornerstone of AS Monaco Basket’s storied history.  

The departure signals change, but the team’s ultimate goal remains the same: to continue dominating on all fronts and bringing home victories.
