According to a new report from renowned Greek journalist Giannis Chorianopoulos, Greek soccer rivals Panathinaikos have made an important breakthrough in their transfer deal to bring in Manchester United's young winger Pellistri. The journalist has previously mentioned on several occasions that Panathinaikos is actively negotiating with Manchester United over the transfer of Pellistri, and this report further confirms the positive developments in the negotiations between the two sides.
Pellistri, a young talent at the age of 22, has shown remarkable athleticism and potential since he was loaned by Manchester United to Spanish side Granada in the second half of last season. During his loan period at Granada, he made a total of 15 appearances, including 14 starts, contributing two goals and one assist, injecting vitality and creativity into the team's midfield.
Pellistri's current contract with Manchester United is set to expire next June, which certainly adds a bit of uncertainty to his future. However, it is this expiring contract that provides the perfect opportunity for interested clubs such as Panathinaikos to bring him in.
According to the latest assessment of the German transfer market website, Pellistri's value has reached €10 million, which fully reflects his value and potential in the soccer world. For Panathinaikos, the successful introduction of this young winger will undoubtedly greatly enhance the team's offensive strength and tactical diversity.
Currently, both clubs are conducting in-depth negotiations on the details of the transfer fee, the length of the contract and the player's personal treatment, etc. It is believed that the news of Pellistri's joining Panathinaikos will soon be finalized as the negotiations continue to progress. For the young player, the move to the Greek League will also be a new start in his career, and he is expected to continue to grow and improve in the new environment.
