Paks away, Thursday night
Your season starts tomorrow. Panathinaikos face Paks in Hungary in the first leg of the Conference League second qualifying round, Thursday at 21:00 local time (1)(2). The squad has landed. 23 players made the trip, including new faces Van Drongelen, De Vrij, and Zarouri (1). No second chances in a two-legged tie, this is the first real test.
Fan reactions: De Vrij and Calabria lead
The squad boarded the plane with new captains. De Vrij takes the armband this season, with Davide Calabria as his deputy (1). Cerin, Katris, Ingason, and Tsirivegia round out the leadership group. The reaction has been calm, with fans noting the experience across the back line.
