Despite being 35, Shengelia remains a sought-after player, with Partizan reportedly joining the race for his signature.
However, Barcelona has made it clear that any interested club will need to pay his €900,000 release clause.
Therefore, if Partizan truly wants to sign Shengelia, they would first need to transfer nearly a million euros to the Catalan club, and only then allocate a substantial sum for Tornike, who is still highly regarded in basketball circles.
Last season, he averaged 12.5 points and 4.5 rebounds over 32 EuroLeague games, though he ultimately couldn't help Barcelona secure any trophies.
Spanish Reports: Karlik Jones Could Depart, Shengelia Far From Partizan
According to Catalan newspaper "Sport," Barcelona is not keen on letting Shengelia go easily.
His contract includes a €900,000 buyout clause, which any interested club would have to pay.
Partizan is mentioned as a potential destination, which would allow Shengelia to reunite with coach Joan Peñarroya, with whom he previously worked at Barcelona.
However, the same source suggests that such a scenario is currently unlikely, also reporting that Karlik Jones might leave the 'Steamroller'.
Partizan doesn't appear to be the most attractive project for Shengelia's ambitions. The Serbian team is undergoing another reorganization, and their market activities seem to be stalled. Unresolved situations, such as the one with Jabari Parker, where the club and player can't find common ground, further complicate matters. There's a possibility that some key players, like Karlik Jones, might also depart in the end."Sport"
It's worth noting that Karlik Jones extended his contract with Partizan before the end of last season, making his departure from the club unlikely.
