Zaccharie Risacher leaves ASVEL and joins JL Bourg

End of suspense regarding Zaccharie Risachersince he decided to join the JL Bourg under a loan, as announced by the club.

The JL project is the one that inspired me the most. It seemed like the best choice to me at this point in my young career.

Next year, the objective is to play at the top of the table in the league and to go as far as possible in Europe. Personally, [l’objectif est] to assert myself as a professional player, to progress, always with the aim of helping the team. »

A new affront for the Parker brothers?
