In a recent interview with Mundo Deportivo, Thanasis Antetokounmpo talked about the possibility of returning to European basketball and didn't hesitate to mention FC Barcelona as an attractive option. “Of course, Barça is great. I played in Andorra and facing teams like that… I loved my time in the ACB; it's an amazing league,” acknowledged the Greek player.

Asked about the possibility of sharing the dressing room in Barcelona with his brother Giannis Antetokounmpo, Thanasis responded with laughter: “I don't know, I don't know (laughs)”. And he added: “You never know in life. But you know what? I find it very interesting that many NBA talents and many young players are returning to Europe. It's good to play outside the United States.”

The comment comes after Giannis jokingly mentioned that he had met with Barça, which caused quite a stir in the city of Barcelona. Thanasis, amidst laughter, replied: “I don't know, I'll ask him, but I don't know (laughs). I'll ask him and see what he says (laughs).”

The eldest of the Antetokounmpo siblings closed the conversation with a reflection on the passage of time and his career: “It's going to be a blessing. You never know how many years you have left; you just try to stay healthy and play as much as you can. All you can, brother.”
