With Terim clarifying at the same time that his goal is none other than her winning the championshipas it happens with every group that cooperates!

I’m very pleased the meeting we had with the president didn’t last long, because there was a lot of good energy and it wasn’t needed. The president knew what he wanted and with the plan he told me I didn’t have to think too much and I decided to accept this offer“, he initially said.

For what he knows about Panathinaikos: “Of course I follow the Greek league and I know Panathinaikos, Olympiakos, AEK. I know all the teams, but I don’t have complete control, so as soon as possible I want to see the team to see what we lack and work on it as quickly as possible.”

About whether he can send a message to the world and what his goals are: “From what I know, Panathinaikos has years to win the championship. Wherever I go, I go to win. I don’t just put my signature with a pencil, I put it with my heart. I came to make Panathinaikos champion. I believe I will have this attitude in the championship as well. There is a competition between four teams, our opponents are both quality and strong, I respect them. As Panathinaikos, we are currently missing the championship, we are missing Europe, so the goals are very open. Anyway, we had a discussion with the president about it. Initially, we had talked with the president for six months, but we ended up with 1.5 years because we have a goal and we want to achieve it. Last year Panathinaikos fought until the end and this year I want us to fight as hard as possible with the team. I have seen some players who are very quality. We will try to get the best from everyone.”
