A few days ago we received a phone call from Spain made to our Club offices. Micaela Millan Urbano was asking to buy a Vassilis Spanoulis shirt to give it as a gift to her future husband who is an avid fan of Olympiacos.

The wife wanted to give the ‘red’ shirt signed by all the team players as a wedding gift.

The couple, at the moment residing in Dubai, was getting married at the beginning of May in their home town of Seville and this gift would mean a lot to Alberto Perez Reyes.

Through the official team e-shop (officialstore.olympiacosbc.gr) Micaela was able to purchase the captain’s shirt, the players got to sign it and on May 10 the valuable gift was in the hands of Alberto who never took it off during the wedding reception.

Alberto is a loyal Olympiacos fan for more than a decade, having watched our team for the first time in Seville in January 2000, when Olympiacos had beaten Caja San Fernando 65-66. He also remembers the incredible performance by James “Hollywood” Robinson and Dragan Tarlac at that particular game and is in possession of their autographs.

In 2008 he got to watch our team’s game against Unicaja, travelling for about 200 km. to watch the efforts of Papaloukas, Schortsanitis and Childress. During a communication we have had he said that “Each time I watch a game of the Olympiacos basketball team is a very special moment for me, since I get to watch a very unique European team. A team with a very strong character together with the epitome of team work and effort”.
