Alafouzos 'All In' with €40 Million for Benitez

Panathinaikos, under the leadership of Giannis Alafouzos, is determined to invest heavily in the team, both financially and competitively. Despite the team's current position in the standings, Alafouzos has given Rafa Benitez a “blank check” to proceed with transfers and build a team with prospects for the future. The transfer plan envisages spending 20 million euros only for player purchases in January. The plan extends to the summer, with an additional 20 million euros budgeted for further strengthening of the squad. This investment counterattack is directly linked to the club's vision for entering the new stadium in Botanikos. The administration believes that a strong team will contribute to the success of the new venture. The clear commitment of Alafouzos and the confidence he shows in Benitez send a strong message within and outside the team, highlighting Panathinaikos's determination to return to the top.
