Osman is set to be officially announced by PAOK Thessaloniki on Monday, where he will be presented at PAOK Sports Arena in front of thousands of supporters.
BasketNews sources earlier confirmed that Osman is nearing an agreement with PAOK Thessaloniki, news which was first reported by Vassilis Papatheodorou of SDNA.
Sources indicate the 31-year-old forward is prepared to accept a three-year, 9 million euro contract offer from PAOK
Osman signed a contract extension with Panathinaikos in 2025 for two more years, valid until June 2027, but his time in Athens has come to an end prematurely.
He marks a statement signing for an ambitious project led by new head coach Andrea Trinchieri, with the team previously announcing the arrivals of new players, including the likes of Nick Calathes, Trevor Hudgins, Kyle Alexander and Marcus Foster.
Osman was an important figure for Panathinaikos this past season, playing in 39 EuroLeague games for the Greens with averages of 12.9 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.2 assists in almost 27 minutes per match.
