Anastasios Bakasetas, who was transferred to Panathinaikos from Trabzonspor, made notable remarks.
In his statement, the Greek player said, "Pana did everything to sign me. When such a big club shows you this much interest, you don't need to think too much. It is an honor for you when a team is so eager to have a player. As a footballer, I like to go to teams that really want me. My transfer didn't take very long. It happened within a few days."
Regarding being described as the transfer of the year for Panathinaikos, Bakasetas stated, "I cannot hide it, it is nice to be in the spotlight with these words. I thank those who view this transfer positively and speak about me in this way. Right now, what I need to do is play football, just as I have done since I was 5 years old. I am not interested in anything else. I like that the fans have demands and expectations of me. All I have to do is be myself and improve."
The Greek player also added, "Returning to Greece was a challenging process for me. I had been away for 4-5 years. It is nice to return to your homeland."
