The Greek national team coach has not been involved with any club since taking on the national team role, though he previously had a highly successful stint with Peristeri, especially in European competitions.

In this way, Spanoulis returns to the Euroleague, a competition he won three times — twice with Olympiacos and once with Panathinaikos.

Monaco is a very strong team with a notable Greek presence, featuring Spanoulis’ former teammate Nick Calathes and Giorgos Papagiannis. Additionally, they have the reigning Euroleague MVP, Mike James, along with players like Korkmaz, Okobo, and Motiejunas.

Monaco’s current Euroleague record stands at 6-4, placing them in 7th place in the standings.
