Drissa Camara: Panathinaikos linked with move for Gaziantep midfielder

Panathinaikos are reportedly monitoring Gaziantep FK central midfielder Drissa Camara ahead of a potential summer move from the Turkish Süper Lig to the Greek Super League 1.

The 24-year-old, who holds dual nationality with Côte d’Ivoire and Italy, is currently valued at €3.00m, with Greek media suggesting that figure could form a reference point if negotiations advance. Transfermarkt data lists the probability of the deal only as “?”, underlining that talks are at a very early, speculative stage.

Camara is on the books at Gaziantep FK, where he wears the number 3 shirt and operates primarily as a right-footed central midfielder. His contract details with the Turkish club are not publicly specified, and with no expiry date recorded, observers have not ruled out scenarios ranging from a standard transfer to a possible free-agent situation should his deal be close to, or at, its natural end.

Born in Abobo on 18 February 2002 and standing at 1.79m, Camara fits the profile of a mobile, modern central midfielder. Registered with nationalities for both Côte d’Ivoire and Italy, he remains eligible for either country at senior international level, though no senior caps are listed in the latest data.

Recent club data for the current campaign does not provide a full statistical breakdown of goals or assists, nor does it detail individual match-by-match performances, opposition or scorelines, meaning his most recent outings for Gaziantep cannot be independently verified from the information available.

With Panathinaikos looking to strengthen in the centre of the pitch and Camara’s market value at a relatively accessible €3.00m, this is a rumour that may be revisited as the window approaches. If a move to Athens were to materialise, it could serve as a significant next step in his career, offering a new platform in Greek football to enhance his reputation and unlock his potential.
