Paksi away on Sunday, your season starts now
Panathinaikos open their campaign Sunday against Paksi in the Conference League, away from home (1) (3). This is the first official match of the season. Nothing else matters right now. The squad is coming off a five-week training block through Athens and Apeldoorn, and the sharpening is done.
Spartak Trnava and CSKA 1948 cancelled each other out
The other tie in your section ended 0–0 (2). Spartak Trnava and CSKA 1948 could not find a winner. Your team awaits the winner of that tie as a potential next opponent in Europe (2). All to play for in the second leg.
A number 8 is the only immediate priority
Panathinaikos are hunting a central midfielder, and that is where the focus stops. Sources inside the club say a number 8 is the sole pressing target right now (4). Further moves are planned, but only after the European matches (4). The club is also close to wrapping up 16-year-old forward Iasonas Varvaritis, a longer-term bet on Greek talent.
