In the great ease with which he made the decision to accept the offer of cooperation made to him by Panathinaikos, Stefan Jovic stood in his statements upon his arrival at the airport. The Serb clarified that he feels in excellent condition and that he is determined to give the best he can for his new team.

His first statements in detail:

For his agreement with Panathinaikos:

“Thank you for the welcome. I want to wish everyone a happy new year. You are right, I was absent for six months, because I had a serious injury with the national team. Now I am happy to be here and I will give my best to help the team. I hope that the second half of the season will be much better than the first “.

For his physical condition:



“I feel great. I was told I would be out for two months. After some exams in Germany we decided to stay out for longer, to be safe and 100% ready. We talked to Panathinaikos in December and it was easy for me to decide to sign here “.

For the difficult season of Panathinaikos:



“I watched a lot of matches, I am also close to Nedovic. Definitely, the season is not good so far. I expect my new teammates to try harder. I will give everything, I will give what I have. I know I may not be in the best physical condition, but I give my best first in training and then in matches. We want to be competitive until the end of the Euroleague season. “We have good chances for the Cup and after the championship.”

On whether there is a schedule for when he will play:



“It simply came to our notice then. We will see as soon as I do the medical examinations tomorrow and join the team. I believe that in a few days and after a few training sessions I will be ready to join the team “.

On whether he expects his cooperation with Panathinaikos to continue in the coming years:



“Yes, there is an option and both sides will. We’ll see. For me the most important thing now is to play. I believe in myself. This is what I want to keep saying. “But now the most important thing is to play and then we will see what happens when the season is over.”

For his record of assists in a Euroleague match and what people should expect:



“I do not think about what they say behind my back or what happened in the past. “I’m very ‘hungry’ right now to show what I can do.”

For the problem of Panathinaikos in position “1” after the departure of Nick Kalathis:



“Nick Kalathis is one of the best point guards in the Euroleague. We are similar players. This is what Panathinaikos needed at the moment. “I expect to give these things to the team, so that it can play better.”

For Nemanja Nedovic:



“Nemanja Nedovic is one of the best players in his position. I saw him against CSKA and he needs more space to play at the level he knows. “I really believe in myself that I can help the team play better.”
