Nemanja Aleksandrov ( Serbian - Cyrillic Немања Александров ; born April 10, 1987 in Belgrade , SR Serbia ) is a Serbian basketball player . Aleksandrov played as a professional in his homeland, Slovenia , Turkey , Germany , Italy , Belgium and briefly in Spain . Since December 2016 he has been playing for the Bundesliga club Eisbären Bremerhaven .

Career

Aleksandrov got off to a promising career start as a young player, when he became U16 European champion in 2003 as “ Most Valuable Player ” of the tournament and team-internal top scorer of the Serbian-Montenegrin youth national team. He has already been traded as a future NBA player.

In the following season 2003/04 he made his debut for the first time in the first men's team of his then club FMP Železnik from his hometown. The team won the ABA League for the first time at the end of the season , which they could repeat two years later in 2006. In addition, he won the national cup competition in 2005. In 2006 he moved within his hometown to local rivals KK Roter Stern, with whom he subsequently became twice national runner-up and one runner-up cup. In 2007 he made his debut in the Serbian men's national team at the 2007 European Championship finals . The first participation in the finals after the separation from Montenegro ended for the Serbian selection, in which Aleksandrov was only a supplementary player, after three defeats in the preliminary round, however, early. After three years at Roter Stern, Aleksandrov moved to the Slovenian champions KK Union Olimpija from the capital Ljubljana in 2009 . The team won the national cup competition, but missed defending their title in the championship just under in five games of the final series against KK Krka Novo mesto.

In the 2010/11 season Aleksandrov played in the Italian Lega Basket Serie A for Scavolini from Pesaro . The team missed entry into the play-offs for the championship in tenth place on the main round table . Aleksandrov, however, struggled with knee injuries again after suffering cruciate ligament ruptures in both his senior years at FMP Železnik and Red Star . So he got no contract in the 2011/12 season and completely missed championship games. After his personal Nenad Trajković coached the team of the Belgian club from Pepinster at the beginning of the 2012/13 season , Aleksandrov also got another chance. After the club, which had previously stumbled in sport, had to struggle with significant financial difficulties on the verge of bankruptcy, Aleksandrov moved to Spain at the end of the season in March 2013. Here, however, in ten missions he could not prevent the team from ending the season beaten as bottom of the league ACB . Manresa could only hold the class because the athletic climbers were denied the license for the ACB league. For the 2013/14 season, Aleksandrov got a contract with the German runner-up EWE Baskets from Oldenburg . This contract was extended for another year at the end of the season.

He then stayed in Lower Saxony for a third year before he left Oldenburg after the 2015/16 season and switched to the Turkish club Gaziantep Basketbol . In December 2016 he returned to the Bundesliga and signed with the Eisbären Bremerhaven .
