'I LOOK FOR A CHALLENGE'
"Fenerbahce was a comfort zone for me, everyone knew me, I was there for a long time. Even though the coaches changed, it was my club, I felt very comfortable with my family. I'm looking for a new challenge in my career. There are some players from Fenerbahce that I played with. I'm looking forward to it, I haven't gone to the club yet, I just want to stay healthy and we'll take it step by step. But we know there won't be much time to prepare for the season. There are more teams, more games in the EuroLeague, but we will go step by step. It would be a great achievement for us to make the playoffs after these few years."

"We had a lot of problems in Fenerbahce, there were injuries. A lot of players changed, some left and new ones came. I know how hard it was because when Saras came two years ago it was very hard for me too. I had a hard time to understand the system and everything, so I tried to help the new players as much as I can so that their adaptation is easy.
By January or February we started to play as a team, we found our form. That's when I realized that the season could go well. I'm very happy and grateful, I'm proud of what we did."
Finally, Guduric also spoke about his farewell to Fenerbahce and made a confession about Ali Koc:
"It was a very, very good feeling to go through this. But it was also very difficult. Especially right after the Final Four, in the first or second game we played in the quarterfinals of the playoffs, I knew I wasn't going to stay. In the third game we were down in the last quarter and if we lost we would be eliminated. I thought to myself, 'Will this be my last game in a Fenerbahce jersey?' Then we came back and the stands started cheering.
Those moments were very emotional for me, very beautiful. It's not something you come across very often. The president Ali Koc told me after it was all over that he couldn't remember a player saying goodbye like that at Fenerbahce. These are very beautiful moments."
