Cedi Osman transfer to PAOK and EuroCup campaign

Overview

Turkish basketball player Cedi Osman signed a three-year contract with PAOK, transferring from Panathinaikos for a buyout fee of approximately two million euros. Osman indicated that while he had one year remaining on his previous contract, negotiations with Turkish clubs Anadolu Efes and Fenerbahçe failed due to high buyout costs. He expressed motivation to join PAOK’s project under coach Andrea Trinchieri, aiming to compete in the EuroCup with the goal of reaching the EuroLeague.

Following his arrival, Osman shared his ambitions during PAOK’s media day, stating the team’s primary goal is to win titles. He highlighted the importance of a recent ten-day training camp in Italy and noted strong performances in friendly matches. PAOK opened the EuroCup season with a 93-78 victory against Manresa, where Osman scored 23 points. The team secured a second consecutive win with a 75-72 away victory against Bosna Sarajevo. However, PAOK suffered its first loss of the season in a 95-86 defeat to Lietkabelis.

In the Stoiximan GBL, PAOK maintained an undefeated record following an 88-84 away victory against Kolossos Rodou, moving to a 3-0 start in the league. Osman led the rally in the final quarter, scoring a career-high 37 points. During the Pavlos Giannakopoulos tournament, Osman led PAOK to a 100-99 victory over Partizan. He later reflected on the tournament after an 87-81 loss to Panathinaikos in the final, noting the team's resilience. Osman also addressed his departure from Panathinaikos, citing a perceived lack of communication and a different club direction, though he emphasized there is “no ill will” toward the organization. PAOK extended its undefeated streak in the Stoiximan GBL with a 63-53 victory over Iraklis in a Thessaloniki derby, moving to a 5-0 record in the league. Marcus Foster led the scoring with 17 points, while Osman contributed 12 points.
