Arsenal Announce Signing of PAS Giannina and Greece U21 Defender Konstantinos Mavropanos

Arsenal have confirmed the signing of PAS Giannina defender and Greece under-21 international Konstantinos Mavropanos.

The 20-year-old made 20 appearances in all competitions after breaking into the Giannina team, scoring three goals.

"Young Greek defender Konstantinos Mavropanos has signed for us," Arsenal announced on their website.

"The 20 year-old centre-back arrives from PAS Giannina, where he has made 16 Greek Super League appearances since breaking into the first team last season.

"We’d like to welcome Konstantinos to the club and wish him well for the future."

The signing gives Gunners manager Arsene Wenger more options at centre-back, with Rob Holding and Calum Chambers starting alongside Shkodran Mustafi in Arsenal's 2-2 draw with Chelsea on Wednesday.
