The 2009-10 Eurocup regular season is just around the corner and few players, if any, know better what it takes to win Europe's second club competition than DKV Joventut center Edu Hernandez-Sonseca. He is one of just two players to win the competition twice, and the only one to do so with two different teams - Real Madrid in 2007 and Joventut in 2008. Though his name is already linked to some of the greatest moments in Eurocup history, Hernandez-Sonseca is far from being done. At 26, he's just about to reach the prime of his career. He loves the Eurocup and enjoys being back in the competition, as he told Eurocupbasketball.com. "There is a list of teams right behind the big powerhouses in Europe that are good squads and can offer a big battle everywhere," Hernandez-Sonseca told Eurocupbasketball.com. "In that sense, the Eurocup is really attractive. It is great to play this competition. You face great teams, but at the same time, have a big chance to win the title at the end of the season."
