Panathinaikos go all in for the title after a summer of change

Aug 22, 2026

Title or nothing

Panathinaikos start the Super League season with one objective: the title. A new coach is in place and half the roster has been changed (4). The preview frames it bluntly, winning the league is an end in itself this year (4).

The season kicks off Sunday at 20:00 CEST against Kifisia.

€20m from the TV deal

The club banks €20m from the new TV contract (1). That money hits the books before a ball is kicked.

Cissé found his successor

Djibril Cissé thinks he has spotted the next one. Tetey scored twice, and the former Panathinaikos striker publicly called him his successor (2). The young forward's brace came in a 2–2 draw.
