Final titles for Giorgos Papagiannis at Fenerbahce. The presence of the Greek center in the Turkish team has ended after just one season of joint progress, with the club of the neighboring country saying “goodbye” to him with a simple announcement, but also a special video.
“We would like to thank Giorgos Papagiannis for his contribution to the Fenerbahce family and wish him success in the new era of his career“, emphasizes Fenerbahce. The next stop of the Greek international will be the Principality and Monaco. Papagiannis took advantage of a clause in his contract with Fenerbahce and left Istanbul, signing for a year with wages close to 1.5 million euros. There he will have a teammate again (after Panathinaikos, but also the National team) him Nick Calathesfilling the void of Donatas Motiegiounas.
