Served as captain of Kataja Basket in Joensuu Jamar Wilson has decided to move to France. The background is an offer from France that Wilson wants to receive.
Juniper Basket and the team captain have made the decision to terminate the contract together.
With the termination of the contract, Wilson will no longer represent Kataja Basket this season.
Jamar Wilson played in Kataja for three seasons, starting in 2019. He could hold a total of 44 Korisliiga matches during the seasons.
From the team to support the new
The termination of Captain Jamar Wilson’s contract was timed through a challenging location.
There was a desire to keep the captain on the team, but no attempt was made to put pressure on him or lure him to stay.
– Yes, we said that we definitely want “Jammu” to continue with us. After weighing the situation between the club and the coaching team, we concluded that if and when a player wants to meet a new challenge, we will not settle for cross-rolls, says Kataja Basket’s team manager Jukka Törmälä.
The solution will ultimately be for the benefit of all.
From an economic point of view, the termination of the agreement guarantees Kataja Basket a significant financial benefit.
Kataja Basket has had a challenging season with numerous player shortages.
Kataja has three more matches left in the lower end series. Next, he will meet Lahti Basketball at his home field in Joensuu on Wednesday.
