Jonathan Gomez joins Greek side PAOK Salonika in permanent deal

Jonathan Gomez is on his way to Greece.

Gomez has joined Super League side PAOK Salonika in a permanent transfer from Real Sociedad, both clubs announced. The 20-year-old signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with PAOK Salonika, which runs through June 2027.

Gomez originally came up through the FC Dallas academy before joining USL side Louisville City in 2020. The young left back registered two goals and 10 assists in 39 appearances in the USL before eventually moving to Real Sociedad in 2022.

Gomez never made his first team debut with Real Sociedad, but did feature heavily for their B team (43 appearances, one goal, and one assist). He also spent last season on loan with second-tier side CD Mirandes, logging 39 appearances and over 3,000 minutes of playing time.

Born in Texas, Gomez featured for both Mexico and the United States at the youth national team level. He made his senior USMNT debut in December 2021 before also debuting for El Tri in April 2022.

The reigning Greek champions are currently in Europa League qualifying this summer after defeating Shamrock Rovers 4-0 on Thursday in first leg playoff action.

Gomez could make his club debut on Sunday against Panetolikos in Super League play.
