Willy Hernangómez presented as new Unicaja player
Overview
Spanish center Willy Hernangómez has signed a one-year contract with ACB club Unicaja, leaving FC Barcelona to join the Andalusian team. The move reunites Hernangómez with head coach Txus Vidorreta, with whom he previously played on Spain’s national team.
On August 17, Unicaja officially presented Hernangómez at a press conference in Málaga. During the presentation, the international player expressed his commitment to the club and the city, stating he intends to give ‘120% in every training session and every match.’
Hernangómez noted that he does not view himself as a leader but rather as a ‘soldier’ ready to follow Vidorreta’s instructions. He cited the coach’s history of developing players in his position and their previous connection to his brother as key factors in his decision to join the team, describing the move as an opportunity to learn and compete at a high level.
