Simone Pianigiani's lawyers about the coach leaving Fenerbahce

Simone Pianigiani's lawyers, Fiorenzo Storelli, talked at RadioSportiva about the decision of the coach to leave the bench of Fenerbahce Ulker Istanbul.

"Pianigiani’s health conditions are perfect, they don’t have any impact on this decision.

On Friday there will be a press conference between Pianigiani and Petrucci, Pianigiani will explain the reasons that led him to this decision. He leaves the team as first in the Turkish standing and with the Turkish Cup won.

The objective was an ongoing project that was aiming to go very high in the Euroleague, maybe he understood that that project could not be realized in time, Simone had 2 more years’ contract.

As the serious, mature and correct person he is, he considered to interrupt earlier because he did not see important prospects for the Euroleague. Details will be explained by Pianigiani on Friday.

Pianigiani’s choice is not related to this year, but to the prospects that could have been for aiming to win the Euroleague.

The relationship with the Turkish team are still great. He is very happy for the experience he had in Turkey. Fenerbahce tried to convince him to stay. But Simone made this choice without thinking to the money. But as I've said, on Friday he will explain the reasons that led him to this decision".
