Overview
- Alba Berlin confirmed that playmaker Martin Hermannsson has signed a three-year contract extension with the club, making him a long-term member of the title-winning squad.
- The deal follows last week’s three-year extension for Justin Bean and means at least six players from the championship team remain under contract.
- Sport director Himar Ojeda led negotiations with Hermannsson’s agent and described talks as difficult, while a short club social-media clip fuelled public speculation before the formal announcement.
- Alba has added guards and forwards including Jordan Ford, Julius Böhmer, Brandon Angel and Joe Wieskamp while seeing departures such as Bennet Hundt, Michael Rataj and Moses Wood.
- With training camp due to start in mid-August, the club still needs to settle the futures of Jack Kayil and J’Wan Roberts and will use the coming weeks to finalise remaining roster spots.
