Malta international Aaron Falzon will be taking his talents to Austria as he joins Basketball Superliga side Arkadia Traiskirchen Lions, his agency Flex Basketball announced on its socials on Monday.
Falzon, who became the first Maltese to win the BBL regular season with the Leicester Riders in his only season at the club, will be one of a number of new signings for the Austrian club that has also appointed a new coach last week, naming Nenad Josipovic as the team’s mentor.
The Malta forward, who was part of the 2018 FIBA Small Countries of Europe championship’s tournament five with fellow Maltese player Sam Deguara, is currently in Ireland with the Malta NT ahead of this year’s edition as they aim to retain their gold.
This will be Falzon’s third stint since his college days at Quinnipiac as he first started the season with Etoile Angers in France, moving to Leicester in December.
