Negotiations between Olympiacos and Partizan for the transfer of Frank Ntilikina have collapsed, Eurohoops reports, leaving the French guard in Belgrade and forcing the Greek side to explore other options.
At first, Olympiacos had reached an agreement with Ntilikina and Partizan appeared willing to part ways with the player. However, the Serbian club later requested a $300,000 buyout fee.
Olympiacos declined to pay that amount, prompting Partizan to reverse its position and keep the 2017 NBA lottery pick.
With Ntilikina now off the table, Olympiacos remains focused on adding a guard before the EuroLeague season begins. Head coach Giorgos Bartzokas has already stressed publicly that reinforcements in the backcourt are necessary.
In the meantime, the reigning Greek League champions are in Rhodes competing in the 2025 Greek SuperCup, where they are preparing for both domestic and European challenges ahead.
