Karagounis Says He Would Love to See Ronaldo Play for Panathinaikos After Leaving Al-Nassr
Former Greek footballer Georgios Karagounis has expressed his desire to see Cristiano Ronaldo play for Panathinaikos once his time at Al-Nassr comes to an end. Ronaldo, whose contract with the Saudi club is set to expire at the end of the season, has yet to agree to a renewal.
In a chat with Spin Genie, Karagounis shared his thoughts. He said, while he isn’t sure Ronaldo would ever play for Wrexham, he would love to see him in Greece with Panathinaikos. He described the club as a big name in Greek football. And he pointed out that Ronaldo has already worn green before with Sporting CP, so a move to Panathinaikos wouldn’t be far-fetched.
Karagounis believes Ronaldo’s fame would match well with the stature of Panathinaikos, and though the future remains uncertain, he’s hopeful the football legend could one day turn out for the Greek side.
Now 40, Ronaldo is nearing the end of a decorated career that has seen him represent clubs like Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus, and Sporting CP. Whether he ends up in Greece or somewhere else remains to be seen.
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
Chelsea manager speaks on the team and shares thoughts on considering a change in goalkeepers, giving another goalkeeper, Mike Penders, a chance.
“Penders is part of the squad, so he has an opportunity. We will decide and then I am giving the team tomorrow to the players, so I prefer to respect that they know first.”
