Today some of the most avid fans of the Greek football championship will welcome the newest player of their favourite team. Dimitar Berbatov will be presented to fans at Tumba stadium at 4:00 pm. Admission to the stadium of those who want to welcome the football superstar will start an hour earlier.

At the same time, a press conference at the team’s offices at the stadium will officially present the football superstar to the media and reveal the number of Berbatov in the team. So far it is unknown whether he will continue to wear the number 9 jersey in PAOK or not.

It is expected that the footballer will arrive earlier in Thessaloniki to undergo the mandatory medical examination and his transfer will be finalized afterwards. According to the Greek sports media, its sum is the highest in the history of the local football championship.

At the same time, the communication team of Thessaloniki football club continues to introduce the Bulgarian striker to the Greek public for the second day in a row. In an article entitled "In the mind of Berbatov" they present his life and his development from his childhood in Blagoevgrad to his greatest football successes. Special attention is paid to the charity foundation "Dimitar Berbatov" and the fact that as a goodwill ambassador for UNICEF the player lobbies in favour of human rights protection.

PAOK fans can order a T-shirt with the image of the striker from the online shop of the team for 60 euro. The enthusiastic comments on the Facebook page of the team continue but there are some more moderate as well, "No to fanfares. Let us praise him when he starts to score goals at Karaiskakis (the stadium of Olympiakos - author’s note) and Leoforos (the stadium of Panathinaikos - author’s note)."
