These are the paths to its permanent acquisition

“Broken phone” and how some things are sometimes quoted from foreign publications creates impressions. They often confuse situations and fans' minds, for no real reason.

Since the end of last week, a (first) report was received, via a tweet by a Turkish journalist, about Panathinaikos’ “hot” interest in the famous Galatasaray goalkeeper, 37-year-old Fernando Muslera, whose contract with the Turkish club expires at the end of the season.

The phone call that Fatih Tarim made to him some time ago was used as an argument for this, as “…intention to cooperate again in Panathinaikos.”

But what happened is completely different, and somewhere in the middle comes the “broken phone” we mentioned at the beginning. Terem already has a great relationship with the Uruguayan goalkeeper, whom he calls his football “daddy”.

After all, it was Terim who transferred him to Galatasaray in the summer of 2011 (paying €6.8m to Lazio) and since then they have built a friendship and a relationship of trust that goes beyond football. They speak frequently on the phone, and Muslera was one of the first to call him at the end of December to wish him success at Panathinaikos.

Therefore, in the last contact between the two men, Terem discussed with Muslera about his future and the stage reached in his discussions with Galatasaray regarding renewing his contract. Knowing (and quicker) than Turkish reporters that Muslera is very close to renewing with Galata for another year. A fact confirmed in his statements on Sunday (3/17) by the vice president of the Turkish team, Yakup Cinar, stressing that “…We have largely agreed on the new contract with Muslera.”

“Drago” was his choice

In short, Terim did not enter into any discussion with the experienced goalkeeper about the possibility of working together again in “Clover”. And he didn't do it (apart from everything else) and because Panathinaikos has a very clear plan for the goalkeeper position.

And this is just Bartlomiej Dragowski's stay in Koropi and the following years. Dragowski wants and Dragowski will move to the acquisition permanently in the coming weeks..

After all, the Pole was the choice of Terem himself, who – when the latest “divorce” with Brignoli happened on the afternoon of January 13 – activated his links and contacts in the Italian market and singled out the 26-year-old goalkeeper very early on. Providing a warm recommendation to management regarding his takeover from Spezia at the end of January. As it happened…

Methods of acquiring it (permanent).

The existing status of “Drago” in the previous weeks has also been analyzed and has not changed. Panathinaikos wants to make him a permanent resident… in “G Kalafatis”, not only because he won the three penalties (match ball) in the semi-final against PAOK, but mainly because he sees that he has a goalkeeper with a tremendous opportunity in his hands, which deserves Invest more in the coming years.

His purchase option was set at 3.5 million euros, an amount that (regardless of what anyone may think) is not a barrier for the “Greens”, in terms of the investment value and the perspective that the Pole has.

It is clear that even if room is found to renegotiate along the way (depending on the situation Spezia will find itself in) regarding the initial amount of the purchase option, Panathinaikos will enter into the process, while the possibility of the Italian club being relegated exists. The team is always “playing” in the Italian League (at the moment they are in the relegation zone, 8 matches before the final), which under the circumstances could lead to Dragowski's “freedom”.

He will pay whatever the “clover” needs.

But this matter will become clearer to a large extent in the coming weeks, with the “Greens” and, in particular, the team’s technical director, Giannis Papadimitriou, waiting for the appropriate timing, in order to obtain a clearer picture, before the tournament. Final discussions with the Italians.

However, even if the circumstances are not ultimately 'fruitful' for the renegotiation and Spezia eventually stays in Serie B, with another year of the contract with Dragowski, Panathinaikos are willing to pay whatever it takes to make the Polish goalkeeper their goalkeeper on a regular basis. permanent.

Which in fact – as SPORT24 has pointed out in recent weeks – has already signed (since January) a preliminary agreement with Panathinaikos for a contract until the summer of 2027, which will be “activated” as soon as there is a final agreement. The “Greens” deal with Spezia without any further negotiations with him.

Because he wanted him and wants him for the next few years as a duo with Yuri Lodengin, the club and Fatih Terim…
