Following the medical exam at Quirón Salud Málaga Hospital, Unicaja’s new head coach, Txus Vidorreta, offered his initial thoughts ahead of the start of preseason, discussing the roster, the upcoming training sessions, and the start of the season.
Willy Hernangómez was presented this morning as Unicaja’s new player. The captain of the Spanish national team emphasised that he is coming to Málaga with great enthusiasm, to a great club where he will be playing under Txas Vidorreta – a combination that played a key role in his decision. Hernangómez has expressed his eagerness to start defending the Unicaja shirt straight away, for which he will be a loyal servant.
Unicaja Baloncesto has reached an agreement to sign Lithuanian-German small forward Simonas Lukosius (24 years old, 2.00 meters), who will join the team in Málaga for the upcoming season on loan from Dubai Basketball. The player, who was named MVP of the most recent BCL Final Four, will add an outside scoring threat to the team’s perimeter.
Unicaja’s new match kit is here. The Club and our kit supplier, Joma, are unveiling the home kit that our teams will wear during the 2026/27 season. A design brimming with personality that symbolises everything the team stands for: the fans, the players, the coaches, the youth academy, the sponsors and Málaga.
Real Madrid on the road and La Laguna Tenerife at Carpena. That’s how Unicaja’s 2026-27 season in the Liga Endesa will kick off—curiously, the same opponents they’ll face in the preseason at the 15th Costa del Sol Tournament. It’s a tough start, but one that’s sure to fill the team and fans with energy and excitement as they kick off the new season.
