ANKARA (AA) - Italian general manager Maurizio Gherardini extended his contract with the Turkish basketball club Fenerbahce Beko for two more years.

''Fenerbahçe Beko have reached an agreement with Maurizio Gherardini, who has been the general manager since 2014, to extend his contract for two more seasons,'' the club said on Monday.
