NBA announces 6 Europe games over next 3 years
The post NBA announces 6 Europe games over next 3 years appeared first on ClutchPoints. The ever-expanding NBA has seen consistent growth in recent years, with franchise valuations at an all-time high. The world's best basketball league has become a global phenomenon under commissioner Adam Silver, and the league is continuing its push in Europe with a series of six games over the next three years. The NBA announced Wednesday that Berlin and London will host games in 2026, Manchester and Paris will host games in 2027, and Berlin and Paris will host games in 2028. The Paris Games have been a highlight of the NBA's regular-season calendar in recent years. The NBA previously made annual regular-season trips to London's O2 Arena from 2011-19, and now Berlin and Manchester will join the fun. The Berlin game will be the first regular-season NBA game ever held in Germany, while Manchester previously hosted a preseason game in 2013. The NBA will launch this European stretch with the Orlando Magic and Memphis Grizzlies facing off in Berlin on January 15, 2026, and then in London on January 18, 2026. The participating teams for the games in 2027 and 2028 will be announced before those seasons. The Magic, who also boast of German players Franz and Moritz Wagner, will mark their fourth and fifth appearances in Grizzlies, on the other hand, will be making their European debut. These matchups are made even juicier by the fact that Orlando acquired star guard Desmond Bane from Memphis this offseason. While these teams are traditionally seen as non-basketball markets, the NBA has become a rich financial market, with the 30 franchises currently valued collectively at over $130 billion.

Bayern make fresh contact with Liverpool over Díaz signing
Despite having their initial €67.5 million bid for Luis Díaz rejected, Bayern Munich remain determined to land the Colombian international. According to multiple reports, the German champions have continued their dialogue with Liverpool regarding the forward. Sky Germany reports that Bayern have already submitted a fresh offer, while reports from England claim that although talks are progressing, a formal second bid has yet to be made. Díaz is believed to be keen to join Bayern, but Liverpool have shown no willingness to let him go so far. Whether that stance changes remains to be seen - especially now that the Reds have bolstered their attacking options with the signing of Hugo Ekitiké from Eintracht Frankfurt.
