Pellistri finds a new home in Greece.
After signing a number of quality new players in this summer's transfer window, Manchester United have decided to overhaul their squad. One of the names saying goodbye to the "Red Devils" is young striker Facundo Pellistri.
Since joining Manchester United from Penarol in 2020, Pellistri has struggled to secure a regular starting place. Despite possessing good individual technique and speed, the Uruguayan player has yet to prove his worth in the Premier League.
A promising new destination.
The move to Panathinaikos is seen as a positive step in Pellistri's career. The Greek club is keen to secure the young Uruguayan's signature to strengthen their attack.
Panathinaikos coach Diego Alonso is a big admirer of Pellistri's talent. He believes the young player will be a quality addition to the team. At Panathinaikos, Pellistri will have more opportunities to showcase his abilities and develop his career.
How much did Manchester United earn from this deal?
Although there is no official information on the transfer fee, many sources indicate that Manchester United will receive a considerable sum from the sale of Pellistri. This money will help the "Red Devils" have more budget to recruit other targets.
