Greek basketball club Olympiacos is looking to strengthen its roster and is in advanced talks to sign French guard Frank Ntilikina from the Serbian team Partizan. The potential move comes as Olympiacos seeks to add more depth to its backcourt before the new season.
🏀 Why Olympiacos Needs a New Guard
Olympiacos is actively searching for a guard to fill a key spot on their team, a need that became more urgent following an injury to Keenan Evans. Ntilikina has emerged as their top choice, and it appears that all parties involved are open to the transfer, bringing the deal one step closer to becoming a reality.
💰 The Details of the Potential Deal
For the transfer to happen, Olympiacos would need to pay a buyout fee. Reports suggest that Partizan is willing to let Ntilikina go if the Greek club pays around €300,000. This buyout clause is a standard part of player contracts and makes the path for Ntilikina’s move to Piraeus much clearer.
📊 A Look at Ntilikina’s Performance
Ntilikina joined Partizan in the summer of 2024 after his time in the NBA. During the 2024–25 EuroLeague season, he played in 21 games, contributing respectable numbers. He averaged 7.0 points, 2.0 assists, 1.7 rebounds, and 0.6 steals per game, showcasing his skills on both offense and defense.
