Reyer Venezia has officially confirmed the renewal of Ivana Dojkic for the 2026/27 season, keeping the 24‑year‑old Croatian guard on its roster.
What does the new contract include?
Dojkic signed a multi‑year deal with a salary bump over last year. The clause also adds a playoff‑performance bonus, pushing her offensive output. In the 2023/24 campaign she averaged 12.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game, shooting 44.7% from the field.
Why is the renewal important for Reyer Venezia?
The Venice club is aiming to solidify its place in the Italian Serie A1 women’s league. With Dojkic at guard, the team retains a primary pick‑and‑roll catalyst. Her 2.8 steals per game spark fast‑break opportunities, a core element of head coach Marco Crespi’s system.
How does Dojkic fit into the current roster?
Alongside Giulia Riva and center Alina Iacob, Dojkic will manage zone defenses and stretch opponents with her three‑point shot, where she hit 38.2% last season. Her court vision feeds Iacob cleaner passes into the paint, boosting offensive rebounding chances.
What are the prospects for the upcoming season?
With Dojkic’s renewal, Reyer Venezia targets a top‑five finish, a goal that demands an average of 75 points per game offensively. If she sustains her 3.5 assists average, the team gains more chances to close games in the quarter‑finals. The biggest hurdle remains Famila Schio, but continuity from the renewal should give the club a tactical edge.
What are fans saying?
Venezia supporters celebrated the news on social media, highlighting the value of a player who has shown on‑court leadership. Many recalled her clutch triple on April 15, 2024 against Trentino, when she sealed a 78‑74 win with a 7.2‑meter jumper.
Ivana Dojkic’s renewal marks a decisive step for Reyer Venezia, allowing the club to plan the 2026/27 campaign around a solid foundation and a guard ready to drive the offense.
