As the EuroLeague season reaches its decisive stretch, clubs are not only battling for glory but also shaping their future. A looming luxury tax shift promises to reshape the market, intensifying bidding wars and strategic shifts. Will top free agents still command record deals? Which teams will adapt best to the new financial landscape? Let's dive into the trends set to define the 2025-26 offseason.
As the weeks go by, we are getting closer and closer to the crucial phase of the season, both in the EuroLeague and in the national leagues.
This is always a rather special time of the season because everything is at stake for the most important goals, but at the same time, many clubs are starting to plan for the upcoming campaign.
During these months, the clubs usually start thinking about the players they want to sign during the summer to strengthen their team.
The upcoming 2025-2026 season will certainly be a special one for the EuroLeague clubs.
Not only because it will be the last in which multi-year licences will still be in force.
It is also the first in which clubs, even those without a multi-year licence, will have to comply with the rules of the new luxury tax envisaged by the EuroLeague, which will inevitably change, at least in part, the approach to the European market.
Therefore, it's an ideal moment to try to understand what trends we might see in the coming months on the EuroLeague market.
How much will the new luxury tax system affect the market? Which roles will be most in demand?
We will try to understand these and other aspects characterizing the next EuroLeague market.
