Panathinaikos targets Žalgiris point guard Naïsel William‑Ghos
Greek club Panathinaikos has publicly shown interest in signing point guard Naïsel William‑Ghos from Lithuanian EuroLeague side Žalgiris. Žalgiris president posted on Facebook that the player is not for sale, emphasizing his importance to the team. Reports say Panathinaikos is preparing a lucrative offer that could double William‑Ghos’s current salary – Žalgiris pays about €1.4 million per year, while the Greek club is prepared to offer roughly €2.8 million annually. The player’s contract, signed last summer on a 2+1 basis, contains no release clause for the upcoming offseason, but negotiations between the clubs are reportedly already underway.
