These are days of uncertainty in the home of the Gasol, both faced with a vital dilemma of similar magnitude. The brothers doubt whether to continue active for a season or whether to hang up their boots for good, captivated by a family life to which they have not been able to dedicate as much time as they would have liked in the past.

In the case of Pau, your decision will still take a few days to arrive. The pivot spoke in public yesterday for the first time since his goodbye to the national team in Tokyo and asked for time to decide. He did it in an act of his foundation in which he affirmed that he is not clear on either of the two extremes. “There are days when I feel more like training and I think I could take that risk by continuing to squeeze my body and there are others when I don’t see it so clearly. I think that I have earned the flexibility and tranquility that I am enjoying this month to be able to decide, ”acknowledged Pau.

He did so by making it clear that in the case of stepping on a court again, he would only do so wearing the shirt of the Barcelona. «Of course I have sent a message to Juan Carlos (Navarro) – responsible for the basketball section of the Barça club -. When he has decided he will be one of the first to know, “explained Pau, while acknowledging that it was not” an easy decision to make “and that he still had to give the matter one or two more laps before deciding.

They await him at Barcelona, ​​where the role he played last year is highly valued. They also know that with more training time, their version would be even better, but they don’t want to pressure him, and hence they have given him freedom even if that means he doesn’t start the season with the team.

Pau also gave an opinion about his brother Marc, free to decide his future after the Grizzlies officially cut him on Wednesday night. «I know you are very excited about him Girona Basketball, club in which I am also involved as vice president. But he has also gained the freedom and flexibility to make his own decision and he will do so when he sees fit, “he said.

Future in Girona

With five years younger, Marc’s future seems closer to the courts and, in that case, Básquet Girona –club he founded in 2014 and of which he is president– appears as the first option. He has never hidden the pivot that he would be excited to play there at the end of his career and that path is the one that he will travel with almost total security.

“I’m also waiting and I don’t know what he will do,” acknowledged Pau, a pioneer of an illustrious surname that is going through a sea of ​​doubts these days.
