Omar Brancou Badio continues his adventure with Valencia Basket. The Senegalese guard, who has delivered solid performances this season in the EuroLeague, has extended his contract until 2029, confirming his key role within the Valencian club.

Valencia Basket has announced excellent news for its fans. On its official website, the Spanish club revealed that it has reached an agreement with Senegalese international guard Omar Brancou Badio to extend his contract. The 27-year-old is now tied to the Valencian team until the end of the 2028-2029 season.

In his first full EuroLeague season, the Rufisque native established himself as one of his team's offensive pillars. He posted solid averages of 10.8 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 2.1 assists, for an efficiency rating of 8.6. Beyond the numbers, his defensive impact, intensity, and energy were crucial to the team's success.

This season will remain historic for the Valencian club, which qualified for the EuroLeague playoffs as a seeded team for the first time in its history. Badio particularly shone in the victory against EA7 Emporio Armani Milan, where he set a personal best with 20 points and an efficiency rating of 22.

Across all competitions, from the Liga Endesa to the Copa del Rey de baloncesto, the Senegalese international has played 60 games this season. He has maintained impressive consistency, averaging 10.4 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 2 assists, for a consistent efficiency rating of 8.6.

Arriving in Valencia in the summer of 2024 from Baxi Manresa, where he played under Pedro Martínez, Badio quickly established himself as a key player. After just two seasons with Valencia, he has already made 122 appearances and is closing in on the club's all-time top scorers.

A logical extension for the captain of the Senegalese national team who has become indispensable in the Valencia Basket system.
