Overview
- Panathinaikos announced it has agreed terms to sign French center Moustapha Fall on a 2+1‑year contract and the club published a statement confirming the agreement.
- Fall underwent medical examinations, visited the club facilities and gave his first interview in Panathinaikos colours, with the club stressing finalization depends on medical approval.
- The 34‑year‑old center joins directly from Olympiacos after five seasons there, including last season’s EuroLeague title, a move that is uncommon between the rivals.
- The club has already released Marius Grigonis, Kenneth Faried and TJ Shorts as it reshapes the roster to fit Obradović’s plans and president Dimitris Giannakopoulos framed the signing in comments about player naturalization.
- Fall is 2.18 metres tall, was born in Paris in 1992, has an Olympic silver medal with France and says Obradović played a major role in his decision and that his goal is to win the EuroLeague.
