Panathinaikos unveil special jersey for Pavlos Giannakopoulos Tournament in Australia

·

Panathinaikos AKTOR has revealed a special edition jersey full of Greek character, designed exclusively for the upcoming Pavlos Giannakopoulos Tournament – which will, for the first time, be held outside of Greece.

The event begins with a clash between Panathinaikos and KK Partizan on Thursday, September 18, in Melbourne at John Cain Arena, before the action heads to Sydney for a four-team tournament at Qudos Bank Arena on Sunday, September 21, and Monday, September 22.

The club’s new collectible jersey, created in partnership with Adidas, blends elegant design with strong Hellenic elements to represent the club’s roots as it heads Down Under. The exclusive kit was unveiled this week and is now available for pre-order through CLUB 1908.

In an official statement, the club said the jersey was “enriched with… the scent of Greece so that it could travel to Australia for the 7th Pavlos Giannakopoulos Tournament.”

Panathinaikos fans and collectors alike are being encouraged to secure their piece of club history ahead of the green team’s historic appearance on Australian soil.

You can buy tickets to the tournament here.
