The biggest signing in PAOK’s history is now official. The “black-and-white” basketball club announced the signing of Jedi Osman, finalizing a deal that has already caused a sensation throughout Europe.
The international forward signed a three-year contract with total earnings reaching 9 million euros, while PAOK paid an additional 2 million euros to Panathinaikos to buy out his contract. This is one of the biggest financial transfers ever made in European basketball outside the EuroLeague and undoubtedly the most significant in the club’s history.
