Sastre says goodbye after four years
Joan Sastre is gone. PAOK made it official Saturday, the right-back leaves after four seasons, 119 appearances, and the 2023–2024 Super League title (1) (2) (4). The club posted a video farewell. "Thank you, Joan," read the headline on paokfc.gr (2). Sastre was a fixture under Lucescu. Now he is the first piece of the old guard to exit ahead of the Lisi era.
What comes next in the market
Reporter Thodoris Chastas laid out the transfer roadmap after Aitor Elustondo arrived (3). His Friday update pointed to more moves coming, PAOK are not done. Sporting director Leo Matos and new manager Alessio Lisi are building the squad together, and the Sastre departure opens a hole at right-back that will need filling.
