After a disappointing season, Ergin Ataman parts ways with Panathinaikos
Ergin Ataman has reportedly ended his tenure as Panathinaikos coach after three years, following what Greek media described as a major failure this season. The announcement came on Monday, June 15, 2026, at 18:25, according to the Sports5 report.
The article says Ataman, a Turkish coach, is widely regarded as one of the top coaches in the EuroLeague in recent years, but Panathinaikos' poor campaign led to his departure from the club. No further details on the decision were provided in the report, which said more information would follow.
The exit marks the end of a three-year run in Athens for Ataman, with the move attributed to the team’s disappointing results this season. The report cites Greek media as the source of the news.
