Jordan Loyd is on the verge of signing with Anadolu Efes , according to Marc Stein.

The American guard, who shined at EuroBasket with the Polish national team as a naturalized player, had also been a target for Real Madrid .

However, the Spanish club reportedly faced too many hurdles to secure his transfer from AS Monaco, with Valencia holding Loyd’s tanteo rights, which complicated the situation.

Efes , meanwhile, are moving quickly and appear close to adding Loyd to a roster recently reinforced with the likes of Cole Swider and Kai Jones.

The former Valencia , Crvena zvezda , Zenit, and Maccabi Tel Aviv guard enjoyed a standout EuroBasket campaign, averaging 22.4 points across seven appearances and helping Poland reach the quarterfinals.
