Cedi Osman (29 years old, 2.01 meters) is the primary target of Real Madrid to fill the gap in the forward positions, according to Sportando.
The name of Cedi Osman (29 years old, 2.01 meters) has been circled by Real Madrid, which is still seeking the final pieces of the puzzle to complete its roster.
According to Sportando, Chus Mateo seems to have pointed to the Turkish forward as the player who would ideally fill the void left by the retirement of Rudy Fernandez and the departure of Gerson Yabusele to the NBA and the Philadelphia 76ers.
Osman had emerged at the EuroLeague level with Anadolu Efes, where he played from 2012 to 2017.
In the seven seasons that followed, the 29-year-old forward has had 476 appearances in the NBA with the Cavaliers and Spurs, while last season he played in 72 games with the San Antonio team, averaging 6.8 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in 17:30 minutes of participation.
