jun 30 2026European basketball could see one of the summer's biggest moves. According to El Dedo de Pocius, Panathinaikos has reportedly contacted Ricky Rubio with a significant financial offer for the upcoming season.
The report suggests that Zeljko Obradovic has even spoken directly with the Spanish point guard to explain the Greek club's sporting project and try to convince him to begin a new chapter in Athens.
Ricky, for his part, has reportedly asked for a week to evaluate the proposal before making a final decision. The move, if confirmed, would have enormous impact on European basketball and would represent the return of the Catalan point guard to a stage of maximum continental competition.
Panathinaikos, the reigning EuroLeague powerhouse, is looking to strengthen its backcourt with a profile of experience, talent, and leadership. Ricky Rubio would fit perfectly into that vision, although there is currently no official confirmation from either the player or the Greek club.
Following his return to Barcelona and his subsequent departure from the Blaugrana, Ricky's future is once again at the center of the market. Greece now appears as a very serious option, pending the player's final decision.
