Youth European Player of the Year 2009, Champion and MVP of the 2011 Women’s Euroleague Basketball, Champion & MVP of the 2010-2011 Spanish LF League, Alba Torrens is taking her talent to Turkey. Torrens signed last week with the Galatasaray Basketball Club for 2 years and with an option for a third year. Torrens obviously will become one of the most highest paid Europeans in the world after her past performances as a professional basketball player.
With the marks of top Spanish National teams and figures such as Rafael Nadal who just won the Wimbledon after a 44 year drought for Spanish Players and the Spanish Soccer team who also won the Euro2008 after not winning in the 40s. The national teams for Spain both women and men are hoping to follow in those footsteps in Pekin during the Olympic Summer Basketball Games!
