CSKA signed Victor Keirou

CSKA signed the ‘1+1’ contract with Russian guard Victor Keyru(24, 200) who spend the 2007/08 season in UNICS.

Andrei Vatutin, CSKA CEO:

- Victor is one of the most talented Russian players. He has the experience of performing for different Superleague clubs and that would help him to get used to our club very soon. We talked a lot in the past several days and I had a chance to realize Keyru is a very receptive person which means a lot for CSKA. I think the contract with CSKA will become for him the best possible motivation. He has ability to work in the defense, physical abilities, aggressiveness in the offence, shooting ability – he has all of it. But I hope he would be able to impress us with more.

Ettore Messina, CSKA head coach:

- I think Victor has abilities and ambitions to become true CSKA player. I hope he would understand the philosophy of the team soon. Over all, I am pleased to have the player like Keyru on the roster.
