Real Madrid makes strong push for Vasilije Micic

Real Madrid has presented a lucrative two-year contract offer to former EuroLeague MVP Vasilije Micić, who is seriously considering signing with the Spanish club and returning to Europe, according to sources.

Micić recently agreed to a buyout with the Milwaukee Bucks, returning $6.1 million of his $8.1 million contract for the 2025-26 season. The Bucks acquired him in the large seven-team trade that sent Kevin Durant to Houston.

With his NBA career nearing its end, Micić is focused on a European return. Fenerbahce, previously seen as a top contender to sign him, has reportedly withdrawn its offer.

This leaves Real Madrid as the strong frontrunner to secure the two-time EuroLeague champion. However, one potential obstacle remains: Spain's complex taxation system, which could influence Micić's final decision.
