\u017deljko Obradovi\u0107 will no longer be the coach of the Partizan Basketball Club, the information spread on Wednesday at noon.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no official reaction from Humska, and the black-and-white expedition has not yet returned from Athens, writes Sport Klub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The day after the convincing defeat against Panathinaikos and the devastating performance of the black-and-whites in the second half, there was increasing talk about the next moves of the trophy-winning coach, as well as the club management led by president Ostoja Mijailovi\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The team from Humska, despite a record budget, has poor results in the EuroLeague and with a 4-9 record, is in the lower part of the table, and Obradovi\u0107 submitted his resignation after the match in the “OAKA” hall! There is no confirmation yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sport Klub also contacted President Mijailovi\u0107, but we did not receive an answer before the text was published.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The portal “Mocart sport,” which belongs to the company that is the general sponsor of Partizan, also writes about Obradovi\u0107’s resignation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sixty-five-year-old coach returned to Partizan in 2021 and, in his second tenure on the bench, won two ABA League trophies (2023 and 2025) and the Serbian Championship (2025). In the 2022\/23 season, the black-and-whites were eliminated in the EuroLeague quarterfinals by Real Madrid, although they led the series 2-0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fans of the club from Humska have repeatedly shown dissatisfaction with the team’s players, most recently in the duel with Fenerbah\u00e7e when they booed the players and left the “Belgrade Arena” before the duel was over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Obradovi\u0107 truly leaves the club, unofficial stories circulate that Andrea Trinchieri, who has been unemployed since parting ways with \u017dalgiris this summer, should take over the squad from Humska.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Italian of American descent led Partizan from 2018 to 2020 and won two Radivoj Kora\u0107 Cups. The black-and-whites’ excellent 2019-20 season was interrupted by the coronavirus. At that moment, they were first in the ABA League and had the best record in the EuroCup before the quarterfinal duel with Unics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After Partizan, Trinchieri worked for Bayern Munich (2020-2023) and \u017dalgiris (2023-2025).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The black-and-whites play their next match on December 4 against Bayern in the Serbian capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
