Leslie Warner is MZT Skopje's third foreign signing
28‑year‑old forward Leslie Warner signed with MZT Skopje on 31 July 2026 and becomes the club's third foreign addition for the new season.
Leslie Warner (28 years old, 201 cm) has become the latest foreign reinforcement for reigning champions MZT Skopje after signing an official contract on 31 July 2026.
Warner arrives as an experienced wing with an extensive track record in Europe. After four collegiate seasons at the University of Rio Grande, he made his first move to the continent during the 2021/22 campaign with a stint in Graz, finishing that season with Newcastle in the United Kingdom. Subsequent stops in his career include Kapfenberg (Austria), Slavia Prague and Ústí nad Labem (Czechia), Koroivos (Greece), and last season he played for Lithuanian first‑division side Jonava.
Player profile and expected contribution
Standing 201 cm tall, Warner is known as an effective scorer and rebounder and regularly produces double‑double performances. His combination of size and mobility gives MZT another option on the wing and on the boards.
Warner is MZT Skopje's third international signing for the new season, joining fellow American Noah Farahan and Bosnian centre Emir Krajinić. The club will look to integrate the new arrivals as it prepares to defend its domestic title and compete in regional competitions such as the ABA League.
The club announced the signing on 31 July 2026; coaches and supporters expect Warner's European experience and ability to finish inside to help the team across a long season.
