Olympiacos EuroLeague player acquisitions

Entities: Gerson Yambousele · Panathinaikos B.C. · Giannis Valančiūnas · Zhan Monteiro · Olympiacos B.C.

Overview

In late July 2026, Greek basketball giant Olympiacos announced the signing of Dominican guard Juan Monteiro for the 2026‑27 season. Monteiro said his goal was to win all competitions – the EuroLeague, the Greek championship and the domestic cup – and praised head coach Georgios Bartzokas and veteran teammate Evan Furnie.

A few days later, a EuroLeague transfer roundup highlighted Olympiacos’ move as part of a broader, aggressive summer market. The report listed Monteiro’s addition alongside other notable signings such as Lithuanian forward Giannis Valančiūnas returning to Žalgiris Kaunas, French forward Gerson Yambousele moving to Panathinaikos, and several veteran players changing clubs. The coverage underscored Olympiacos’ intent to strengthen its roster for a title push in Europe and domestically.
