After not being registered by Panathinaikos for European matches against Ajax, rumors are growing that Benjamin Verbič has no real future with the Athens giants. Greek media reports suggest that the new coach of the green-whites, Diego Alonso, does not seriously count on the Slovenian national team player, and that the latter has more or less free rein to find a new employer.
All well and good, but Benjamin Verbič has a problem: there seems to be little interest in him on the market. According to Sport24, Kobenhavn, where the Styrian would gladly return, has (yet) to express interest in renewing the cooperation with the winger. Reportedly, he has received only one concrete offer so far, which did not impress him – according to reports in Greece.
Benjamin Verbič could continue his career in Turkey, as he was invited to join the elite league there by Gaziantep, which finished last season in 11th place in the Super Lig. This club has been playing in the top tier since 2019 and has previously been home to many well-known footballers, including Shola Ameobi, Steven Caulker, Lazar Marković, Kevin Mirallas, Pierre Webo, Tomaš Pekhart, among others.
However, Benjamin Verbič was neither impressed nor convinced by the offer. According to Greek media, what bothered him the most was the fact that he would have to move to a club located close to the Syrian border. The transfer thus fell through, and the wait continues to see if Benjamin Verbič will receive an offer that will convince him.
