Turk Telekom Ankara has announced the signing of Vasilis Charalampopoulos, who is the club's fifth addition to the roster this summer.
Charalampopoulos (2.02 meters, 27 years old) played for Dinamo Sassari in Italy last year, averaging 8.9 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 29 Italian League games. He returns to the BKT EuroCup after last appearing in the competition in the 2021-22 season, when he suited up on two occasions for Umana Reyer Venice.
The Greek forward has also had six seasons in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague, playing 26 games for Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens between 2013 and 2017, then 13 times for Olympiacos Piraeus between 2019 and 2021.
Having made his professional debut with Panathinaikos in 2012, Charalampopoulos left the club in the summer of 2017 by joining PAOK. He went on to play for Lavrio in 2018-19 and spent the first half of the 2019-20 season with Ionikos Nikaias before joining Olympiacos, where he remained until the summer of 2021.
Charalampopoulos split the 2021-22 campaign between Reyer and Fortitudo Bologna, both in Italy, and then stayed in the country for the next two years by playing for Pesaro (2022-23) and Sassari (2023-24).
Not only does Charalampopoulos return to the EuroCup, but he also heads to Turkiye for the first time in his career.
