Analyzing the financial situation of Olympiacos and Panathinaikos Aktor, Eurohoops presents the 2024-25 contracts of each player on the Red and Green roster.
The Greek powerhouses have the largest budgets among the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague teams. After taxes, the NET money amounts to the two most expensive teams in Europe’s premier continental club competition. Combined with coaches’ salaries, the totals reach €20 million.
Which team has the biggest budget and which players earn the most? Eurohoops brings you all the financial information on two of the favorites for this season’s title, including peculiar cases such as that of Luca Vildoza, who receives payments from both parties: in addition to the new contract with Olympiacos, his agreement to leave Panathinaikos included more money that he continues to receive today.
The highest salaries of the eternal rivals
Sasha Vezenkov is clearly the top earner among Greek clubs after returning to Piraeus last summer. His teammate Moustapha Fall and the other big signing of the summer, Evan Fournier, are still in second and third place.
As for Panathinaikos, the top spot belongs to Kostas Sloukas, thanks to a huge contract signed last year. Kendrick Nunn is in second place. Juancho Hernangómez occupies the third spot.
