Panathinaikos Shatters All Records! Budget and Player Salaries Revealed – Unprecedented Figures: Here's What Željko Obradović Earns

Panathinaikos' budget for the upcoming season is reportedly over 60 million euros, with approximately 42 million allocated solely to player salaries, according to Greek newspaper "Gazeta." Following the signing of Željko Obradović, the return of Guerschon Yabusele to Europe has sent shockwaves through the basketball world. The French center is set to earn an astonishing four million euros per season, committing to a minimum three-year contract.

Interestingly, Yabusele isn't even the highest-paid player on the squad. Kendrick Nunn and Nigel Hayes-Davis both command higher salaries, each earning 4.5 million euros.

Following them are Mathias Lessort at 2.7 million euros annually, then Juancho Hernangómez (2.2 million euros), Isaac Bonga (2.15 million euros), and Kostas Sloukas (2 million euros).

Cedi Osman earns 1,700,000 euros, Moustapha Fall slightly less at 1,600,000 euros, Dinos Mitoglou's renewed contract brings him 1,500,000 euros, Jerian Grant 1,400,000 euros, Brancou Badio 1,300,000 euros, and Nikos Rogavopoulos 1,100,000 euros.

Players earning under one million euros annually include Vasilis Toliopoulos (500,000 euros), Panagiotis Kalaitzakis (450,000 euros), Dimitris Moraitis (350,000 euros), Lefteris Mantzoukas (300,000 euros), and Giannis Kouzeloglou (150,000 euros).

As for Željko Obradović, his annual salary stands at 4 million euros, while his assistant coaches collectively earn one million euros. Furthermore, Panathinaikos still has obligations to Ergin Ataman and his assistants, who are due approximately 2 million euros following the termination of their contracts.

The Athenian giants have also paid significant transfer fees for three players: 1,500,000 euros to Valencia for Brancou Badio, 700,000 euros to Partizan for Isaac Bonga, and an additional 650,000 euros to Real Madrid for Guerschon Yabusele.

Panathinaikos' owner, Dimitris Giannakopoulos, is clearly sparing no expense, seemingly determined to fulfill all of Željko Obradović's wishes in hopes that the most decorated coach in Europe will secure his milestone 10th EuroLeague title.
