Barcelona has finalized a deal for goalkeeper Iñaki Peña to join Greek club Panathinaikos. The 27-year-old Spaniard, who developed in Barcelona's youth system since 2012, made his first-team debut in 2023. Peña gained valuable experience through loan spells at Galatasaray and Elche, where he played 16 league games and notably made a crucial save against Kylian Mbappe during a 2-2 draw with Real Madrid.

During the 2024 season, Peña stepped up for Barcelona, featuring in 28 LaLiga matches and securing 10 clean sheets, after first-choice keeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen suffered a long-term knee injury. Coach Hansi Flick relied on Peña during this period. Barcelona publicly thanked Peña for his commitment and professionalism, wishing him success in his new venture with Panathinaikos.
