Iffe Lundberg is the first Dane in CSKA!
15.02.2021
Guard Gabriel Iffe Lundberg (26 years old, 193 cm) has signed a contract with our club for the remainder of the season. The leader of the Danish National Team moved to CSKA from the Zielona Gora, Poland.
Lundberg is one of the brightest discoveries of European basketball in the 2020-21 season. An excellent shooter, who is able to play on both guard positions, is currently ranked third in the VTB United League's top scorers list. Iffe averages 20.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.4 steals, he scored in decisive moments of the games against UNICS and Avtodor, he became one of the heroes of the recent sensational victory of the Polish club against CSKA (26 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists).
The word "sensation" is also perfect for Lundberg's performances for the national team. In the recent autumn "window" Denmark unexpectedly beat Lithuania and the Czech Republic, and the Army Team newcomer scored 28 and 38 points respectively, he also scored a game-winning layup with 18 seconds to go against the Lithuanians.
Iffe joins the ranks of Muscovites after winning the Polish Cup last weekend and getting the tournament’s MVP award. Lundberg’s another team trophy - the FIBA Intercontinental Cup – was won a year ago with Tenerife.

Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
We strongly believed that we need an addition at guard position, and Iffe with his talent and experience in international competitions looks like a perfect fit. He already proved his desire, wish and willingness to give all he has in different situation, playing for the club that aims at bigger goals and under another expectations. We welcome Iffe and wish him all the best in our club.Iffe Lundberg, CSKA guard:
First of all, I want to thank Zielona Gora for the opportunity to come and play for the team. Definitely, it was the most fun I’ve ever had in my basketball life. The friendship, the camaraderie and joy we shared altogether here will never be forgotten. At the same time I am really excited to play for CSKA, I am sure it is going to be fun. I can’t wait for the moment when I join the team, when I get know the guys and we start playing EuroLeague games.
