Panathinaikos targets Nathan Gassama for defensive reinforcement

Panathinaikos is actively exploring the transfer market to strengthen its defensive line, with Mali international Nathan Gassama emerging as a primary target. The 25-year-old center-back, currently playing for Baltika Kaliningrad in Russia, is highly valued for his versatility. Standing at 1.92 meters, the left-footed defender is capable of playing both as a central defender and as a left-back.

Reports indicate that Panathinaikos has formulated an official offer to Baltika Kaliningrad for the player. The club seeks to bolster its roster following the departure of Ahmed Touba, looking for a multi-positional player to provide tactical flexibility for coach Jesko Nistrup. Gassama’s career includes stints at Nantes, Troyes, and Slavia Sofia before his move to the Russian league.
