“After the felicitous as also desired outcome in the Jonas Maciulis case, player to be staying on our team through the next two seasons and while we are expecting to receive Chinese athlete Ping Shang’s letter of clearance, we fulfill our transactions period.
The Panathinaikos BC administration committed its duty following down to the very last detail its Head Coach’s guidelines, so much while renewing as when signing on new players. We set invigoration of our Greek element as our main priority, as four active national players would sign on with Panathinaikos. We had already presaged it and of course, this specific plan has been implemented.
Everyone knows that investments during austere economical times are not an easy thing to do. We attempted to make ours to the extent of our possibility, avoiding conflicts and big statements; we however, always maintained our love for Panathinaikos as our starting point, as also our high motive for the successes to go on and of course our respect towards the fans. I must however note that:
We all live FOR Panathinaikos and NOT off Panathinaikos. Everyone chips in according to his role and this procedure is a chain which must stand almightily powerful.
Reinforcing Panathinaikos is each and every one of us’ obligation. I so believe, that the Panathinaikos fans will in their turn, support the team’s effort by investing in it, through purchasing season tickets. Their investment in kind and soul is as important and is of course a natural progress of the administration’s effort.
We are expecting you all at the OAKA”.
