"During my first year at Panathinaikos, after Vildoza's injury, we went into the market to find an option. An agent offered us that possibility, to sign Jean Montero, but... Maybe neither the coach nor I had enough courage to convince the president that this was a player for the future, someone we should sign under the radar and invest in.

We were new, and at that moment, we needed results... It was a delicate situation. Maybe I lacked the courage to push harder for us to sign him." 🟢 Sani Becirovic was asked about one player he wanted to bring to his team but ultimately couldn't manage to sign. ✍️ #paobc
