Played with the side in Divison Two

Mellieha Libertas confirmed another signing on Friday as they announced the return of Slovenian centre Klemen Skrabec to the team.

“Welcome back Klemen Skrabec,” a club statement read, “The 6’6′ Slovenian Centre came back with us after winning the second division Shield Cup four years ago.”

Skrabec was with the side from 2019-2021 when the team was still in the amateur division of Maltese basketball and his return means he will now play in the top echelon of the local sport under coach Ian Terribile.

While the 6’6 player may be considered a bit undersized for the centre position, Krabec will be banking on his experience to get back in the game. Added to that will be the benefit of the Slovenian having been living and working in Malta for a number of years. This means he will be considered a local player in the eyes of the league.

This signing comes just days after the Northerners announced their first import signing of the summer Tedrick Wolfe who joined after his college ball experience at NAIA college Wayland Baptist University.
