As LDLC ASVEL announced via a press release, the club has terminated the contract of coach Mitrovic. L’Equipe had previously reported that coach Mitrovic learned about the termination of his contract via e-mail with his lawyer, Xavier Lecerf-Galle, giving ASVEL 24 hours to “abandon the dismissal procedure for ‘serious misconduct'” against the Montenegrin coach.

Here’s the press release of ASVEL:

“LDLC ASVEL informs you that it has terminated the contract which linked it to Zvezdan MITROVIC. The current procedure does not allow, to date, to communicate more on the motivations of this rupture. LDLC ASVEL President Tony PARKER will speak in the coming days in order to re-establish certain realities, following statements made by the lawyer for Zvezdan MITROVIC.”
