Joventut Badalona announced on Wednesday the signing of the pivot Simon Birgander, from UCAM Murcia, who signs a contract for the next two seasons and an optional one.
The Swedish player, 27 years old and 2.09 meters high, returns to the Verdinegro team after having played in the Catalan entity between 2017 and 2023, when he signed for the Murcian team.
In the last two campaigns in the ranks of the UCAM, he has averaged 8.4 points and 5.4 rebounds in 22 minutes of medium game.
Birgander will occupy the Plaza del Ukranian Artem Pustovyi, which on Tuesday was disconnected from the Verdinegra entity.
In this way, the Swedish player will share inner position again with the Croatian against Tomic, with whom he agreed two seasons before signing for UCAM Murcia.
The Nordic pivot is the second signing of this summer of the Catalans after the incorporation of the American escort Cameron Hunt.
