Virtus Segafredo Bologna has exercised the exit option for Ekpe Udoh. The player had signed a two-year contract last summer. ## What happened?
Ekpe Udoh returned to Europe last season, but his return was not one of the most fortunate. During an Italian Supercup match against Bertram Tortona, the player injured his knee. The diagnosis revealed a complete tear of the patellar tendon in his left knee, which ended his season. Despite hopes of his recovery in the second part of the season, this did not happen. ## Why it matters for Virtus Segafredo Bologna?
The decision to exercise the exit option for Ekpe Udoh could have a significant impact on the team. The player had important experiences in Europe, having won the EuroLeague with Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul in 2017 and being named Final Four MVP. ## What comes next?
Virtus Segafredo Bologna will now have to find a replacement for Ekpe Udoh. The team has already started evaluating options for the next championship. The summer market will be important for the team, which will try to strengthen itself for the next season. The player had spent two seasons with Utah Jazz and two seasons in China before returning to Europe. His experience and ability will be difficult to replace, but the team is already working to find a new player who can help the team achieve its goals
