Panathinaikos has filed an official complaint with the EuroLeague against Olympiacos head coach Giorgos Bartzokas over the incident that took place in Dubai.
After announcing that they would take legal action, this is the first step taken by the “Greens,” who intend to pursue further legal actions regarding the well-known incident involving the Olympiacos coach and a fan after the end of the “Reds’” game against Dubai.
The EuroLeague’s disciplinary judge will now examine the case and decide on the disciplinary aspect of the matter.
As part of the complaint, Panathinaikos has submitted video footage of the incident in Dubai.
In the statement released after the incident, Panathinaikos stated, among other things: “No ‘dwarf’ has the right to speak about Panathinaikos, the Panathinaikos of 7 European trophies, 1 Intercontinental title, 41 Greek Championships and 21 Greek Cups — the team that has won as many titles as all the others combined!”
