Francesco Cicalese Resigned

FRANCESCO CICALESE

Position: Power Forward

City: Andalucía, Spain

Year: 2025-26

EuroProBasket is thrilled to announce the return of Francesco Cicalese, the formidable 6’8″ American/Italian power forward from Texas, to its Euro Professional Program in August 2025. This marks a new chapter for Cicalese, who has signed with a team in Andalucía, Spain, demonstrating his unwavering dedication to his professional basketball dream.

Cicalese first joined the Euro Professional Program in August 2024, eager to embark on his overseas career after completing his studies at Texas Tech and Texas A&M. His talent quickly shone through, securing him an offer to play in the South of Spain within his first month. However, his inaugural season was cut short by an unfortunate injury just a few games in, forcing him to return home for recovery.

Undeterred by this setback, Cicalese dedicated himself to rehabilitation and preparation. His resilience and commitment to the sport have brought him back to EuroProBasket, where he has once again leveraged the program to prepare for another professional opportunity. His hard work has paid off, culminating in this new signing with a team in Andalucía.

This journey is a testament to Francesco Cicalese’s perseverance and the effectiveness of the Euro Professional Program in supporting athletes through their challenges and helping them achieve their goals. We look forward to seeing him thrive on the court in Spain.
