I am very pleased with the team, how it was composed. I congratulate those who made it. And, I anticipate the domaFinancially, Virtus is beautiful and solid. We made the team with the means we had and have. I feel satisfied with the team and peaceful and calm for this championship, then we will see. From the members&#8217; point of view, I for my part feel peaceful and calm.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>We went up to 45 percent because we needed to help with the championship and Euroleague. We have no intention to grow.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>The negotiation with the Israelis?

That&#8217;s all.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Corporate changes taking place? No, nothing is taking place. We have tried to help and support. I am calm about the fact that Virtus has means and team to face the championship. We are sustainable financially, then what will happen next year nobody knows.
