Milos Pantovic, a 23-year-old Serbian centre-forward who joined Panathinaikos last summer for a transfer fee of 1.5 million euros and signed a four-year contract, is not included in Rafa Benitez's plans. Rafa Benitez has recommended that Pantovic should leave, most likely on loan. He could go to play either within Greece or abroad, and if he shows improvement, he could return to Panathinaikos. The Serbian international has one cap for his country and his current Transfermarkt market value is €3.00m. In the 2025/2026 Super League 1 season, Pantovic has made 16 appearances, scoring 1 goal and providing 2 assists.
