Sylvain Francisco has arrived in Athens to complete his move to Panathinaikos. According to SDNA, the French guard was spending his holidays in Mykonos and took the first flight to the Greek capital once the deal with the club was finalized.

Francisco will undergo the required medical examinations before formally completing his transfer to Panathinaikos, with the official announcement expected to follow. He was welcomed at the airport by Director of Scouting and Team Personnel Nikos Pappas and Team Manager Giorgos Gotzogiannis.

For Panathinaikos, this is a major EuroLeague market move after days of speculation around the player’s future and ASVEL’s situation. Francisco is now one step away from officially becoming a new player for the Athens club.
