Monaco point guard Mike James and Barcelona may face each other in court after the Catalan club refused to honor a previously signed contract, according to Mundo Deportivo.
The parties had finalized an agreement, but the situation changed following the dismissal of head coach Xavi Pascual, who was the main advocate for bringing in the 35-year-old American. After the coaching change, Barcelona’s management decided that James did not fit into the new team project and withdrew from the deal.
Meanwhile, the player himself disagrees with the unilateral termination of the contract, so the dispute is expected to be resolved through legal proceedings. Regardless, James will leave Monaco, which is set to move from the EuroLeague to the EuroCup due to financial difficulties.
