Panetolikos is close to completing the agreement with Serbian defensive midfielder Lazar Kojic. Kojic is versatile, able to play both as a defensive midfielder and as a center-back. The club has reached an agreement with Hegelmann, and they are waiting for Kojic to finish his commitments in the UEFA Conference League qualifiers before he can come to Greece. The 25-year-old’s contract with the Lithuanian club is set to expire on December 31, 2026, and his Transfermarkt valuation is €400k.
