Duane Bacon has been in Athens since Tuesday afternoon. The American striker was announced last week by Panathinaikos.

The 27-year-old will be integrated into training and is now counting down to his green debut. It is noted that Clover opposes Maccabi in Israel in the context of the fifth round of the Euroleague.

“I saw this as an opportunity, I talked a lot with Paris (Lee), one of my favorite teammates. I visited many times last year and loved Athens. I really think I can help the team with my game. I thought this was the best place to continue my career in Europe. I wanted to come and I’m ready to play. We have a great legacy and many great players who have played here. This is a legendary team and I wanted to be a part of it.

I am a happy guy, I like to win and play at the highest level. I always smile, win or lose. Last year I did everything I could to win AS Monaco and I will do the same for Panathinaikos. I am ready to come and show what I am capable of,” he said, in particular, in his first statements.
