Panathinaikos Targets Brentford Midfielder Matias Jense for Transfer
Greek champions Panathinaikos are actively pursuing 30‑year‑old Danish midfielder Matias Jense, currently with English side Brentford. Coach Jakob Nystrup has highlighted Jense as a priority to strengthen the team's central midfield and has presented his case to the club’s board.
Jense declined Brentford’s offer of a longer‑term contract, turning down a one‑year extension that would have kept him at the club beyond his June 30 contract expiry. Seeking a new challenge, European competition and a leading role, he is considering a move abroad. Panathinaikos says they can provide those conditions and are preparing a transfer offer, though final terms will depend on Brentford’s valuation and the player’s demands.
