Elustondo signs, a La Liga defender for the back line
PAOK moved early and got their man. Aritz Elustondo signed a free transfer from Real Sociedad on Sunday, a contract through 2028 confirmed by the club (1) (3) (4). The 32-year-old Basque center-back spent his entire career at La Real, over 250 appearances, and now he is yours. Sporting director Leo Matos, in the job barely a week, has delivered a statement signing before preseason even begins.
Taison hints at one more season
Taison is not done. The 38-year-old Brazilian midfielder posted on social media suggesting he will stay for a "last dance" with PAOK (2). No official extension yet, but the message reads like a farewell tour that has not quite started. He clearly wants one more shot at the league title that slipped away last season.
Tairi: "I want the league with PAOK"
Brin Tairi has renewed his contract and is not shy about the goal. "I want the league with PAOK," he told Athletiko, adding he would bring Pat Beverley to watch a match if he could pick anyone (5). Bold talk from a player buying into the new era under Lisi.
