Rotcha: "Panathinaikos is the ideal destination for Antino - He will receive a great welcome"

Juan Ramon Rotcha, a former Panathinaikos footballer, expressed his belief that Santino Antino will be very successful in Greece and at Panathinaikos. In an interview with an Argentine show, he described Panathinaikos as the ideal destination for the young footballer's career development, due to the team's dynamism, different style of football, and thirst for titles. Rotcha emphasized that Greece is a beautiful country with an excellent climate and hospitable people, while Glyfada, where Antino is expected to live, is reminiscent of Monaco. He believes that Antino's transfer is the biggest investment made by a team in Greece and expects him to offer a lot to Panathinaikos. Furthermore, Rotcha mentioned that Argentines and Greeks have good relations and that Antino will be warmly welcomed in Greece. He noted that football in Argentina and Greece is demanding, but that Antino has the potential to excel and make a difference.
