Partizan Belgrade and Spanish sports partnership

Overview

The relationship between Serbian club Partizan Belgrade and Spanish sports entities has evolved from competitive encounters to a formal institutional alliance.

Initially, Partizan’s football squad traveled to Spain for a Conference League qualification playoff against Getafe, with coach Saša Ilić describing the Spanish side as a “strong, aggressive, and disciplined opponent.”

By September, the connection between the two nations deepened in basketball as the Spanish club Baloncesto Fuenlabrada officially rebranded as Partizan Fuenlabrada. This move formalizes a 35-year partnership originating from the 1991-92 season when Partizan was forced to play European home games in Fuenlabrada due to the war in the Balkans. The new alliance encompasses player development, marketing, and institutional cooperation. The partnership was celebrated with a preseason friendly during the AdmiralBet Open Air 2026 tournament, where Partizan Belgrade defeated Partizan Fuenlabrada 98:55.
