Radovan Pankov is very close to signing a new contract with Legia Warszawa, according to Marcin Szymczyk from Legia.net. Before the appointment of Marek Papszun, Pankov did not envision his future at the club and no contract extension offer had been made despite promises. The new coach valued Pankov's skills and character. The matter of the Serb's contract renewal is described as highly probable and close to being finalized.

According to 'Fakt', the management of Legia Warszawa is attempting to extend Radovan Pankov's contract, as the new coach, Marek Papszun, has a high opinion of the player and wants him to stay longer. Previously, Legia's officials had not shown a desire to extend his contract, which led Pankov to consider other options. The club is now actively pursuing a contract extension with the player.

Portal Legia.net quoted Michał Żewłakow as stating in a conversation with club media that Legia Warszawa wants to extend the contract with Radovan Pankov. Żewłakow explained that they would like to extend contracts with those who want to play in Warsaw and that Radovan Pankov is among the options they will make an effort to retain and hold discussions with.

Legia Warszawa is not currently in talks with Radovan Pankov to extend his contract, a fact Pankov himself has stated. Pankov's contract is valid until June 30 of the following year. Many supporters believe the club's officials, who are led by sporting director Michał Żewłakow, should make every effort to retain the 30-year-old defender. Additionally, fans on social media have called for the club to pay any amount required to keep Pankov and to appoint him as captain.
