Greek journalist Nikos Athanasiou has assessed the preparation for the new season of two players of Panathinaikos Athens who have experience of playing for Ukrainian top clubs.

"If Bernard continues in the same vein, we will see another player. I think it's difficult to imagine him in a 4-3-3 formation with Djuricic. They will be fighting for the position of either an inside midfielder or a 'ten' in a 4-2-3-1 scheme. I would expect a bit more from Verbic. He's playing at his limit," Afanasiou said on Sport FM.
