Ounahi stays at Girona for now, MARCA reports

Girona, for now, aren’t moving Azzedine Ounahi. That’s what MARCA indicates, with the paper adding that Panathinaikos are still making a strong play for the Moroccan midfielder, although the switch is being shaped by Greek deadline pressure.

Bid shaped by the deadline

Per MARCA, the Greek transfer window shuts on September 15. The same timing matters because Panathinaikos need to submit their squad list for the Conference League group phase by 23:59 that day, which could either speed things up or leave no room for a late move.

The money Girona wants

In the information shared by the outlet, Girona will only consider a departure if the numbers make sense. MARCA notes that Girona paid 6 million to Marseille roughly a year ago and that Ounahi also has major international profile after playing the World Cup.

The report adds that if a proposal doesn’t top 15 million, Girona won’t be interested—especially because the release clause stands at 25 million. It also underlines that Ounahi is tied down until 2030, so the club are not expected to sell cheap.

What happens if he stays

If Panathinaikos’ offer doesn’t reach Girona’s threshold, Ounahi would remain. In that scenario, the article ends by flagging the key question: what his attitude and approach will be if the move doesn’t happen.
