Virtus Roma to land Maestranzi, get rid of Traore, targeting Tucker

Lino Lardo, new head coach of Virtus Roma confirmed that Anthony Maestranzi will be the first addition of the team for the coming season. Maestranzi will arrive on loan from Montepaschi Siena who signed him to a three-year deal from Sutor Montegranaro.
The coach also added that Ali Traore is no more in the plans of the team and he can leave despite another two years of contract with the team.
Virtus Roma is also waiting for an answer by Clay Tucker. The American player spent last season with Real Madrid averaging 8.7ppg in Euroleague and 8.5ppg but he did not perform up to expectations. Tucker had a terrific season in 2009-10 in Spain with DKV Joventut Badalona averaging 16.2ppg in ACB. Virtus made an important offer for him.
