Kostas Sloukas announces his departure from Olympiacos

The Greek guard headed to Fenerbahce

Greece
Kostas Sloukas announced his departure from Olympiacos after seven years.
The Greek guard is now headed to Fenerbahce where he will sign a two-year contract.
His farewell letter:

I fought with my thoughts and my emotions and I end up to the decision that in this particular moment the best for me as a player and my future is to continue away from Olympiacos. It is a decision that had to do only to sports criterias.
I didn't want the whole story to become a serial (series). I didn't want and I never put olympiacos to an auction.
I neved doubted the love of Aggelopoulos' family, who they gave me more than enough in 7 years and I don't want anybody to doubt that I appreciate and I respect the presidents and Mr. Konstantinos Aggelopoulos.
I believed in 7 straight years, in every practice, in every game I gave everything (with my body and my soul) for the team and I want to believe I put a small stone to Olympiacos' success.
I keep all the beautiful moments I had with my teammates and my coaches, with the staff, with every member of this big family. To them I felt the need to explain my decision. I did it with respect and honesty that these people deserve.
I dont say good bye but we ll meet again

    I am also dishearted by his decision but i can understand him a lot......In Hellas, we don't have the sportmanslike behaviour. The games between Olympiakos and Pao even against Paok as well, are war-like !! Even in Turkey they seem to enjoy basketball a lot more...My personal belief

    Kostas, you will repent cause of this decision. I hope i will wrong but i don't think. You are lefting behind basketball culture, passion, vision and success. And going through money and looseness. Last 10 years, Fenerbahce spent 250 milyon euros but didn't earn anything that Greek clubs have.
