A panel configured to be used for constructing a floor covering that comprises a plurality of said panels, the panel comprising:
- a core having a first side that is provided with a first extension region and a second side that is provided with a second extension region, wherein the first side is oppositely arranged relative to the second side, wherein the first extension region comprises a first coupling profile and wherein the second extension region comprises a second coupling profile that is complementary to the first coupling profile;
- wherein the first coupling profile comprises an upward tongue that runs at a distance from and parallel to a first inner flank of the core, wherein a clearance between the first inner flank of the core and the first upward tongue forms an upward groove;
- wherein the second coupling profile comprises a downward tongue that runs at a distance from and parallel to a second inner flank of the core, wherein a clearance between the second inner flank of the core and the downward tongue forms a downward groove;
- wherein the downward tongue comprises an upward flank forming an outer edge of the panel;
- wherein the upward tongue comprises a curved portion, an upward flank extending from a bottom of the upward groove to the curved portion, and a downward flank extending from the curved portion and forming an outer edge of the panel;
- wherein the first inner flank is provided with a third locking element;
- wherein the upward flank of the downward tongue is provided with a fourth clocking element,
- wherein the third locking element is configured to co-act with the fourth locking element of an adjacently arranged further panel for the purpose of mutually locking the panel and further panel;
- wherein an outermost point of the curved portion is positioned further away from the first inner flank than a center point of the upward tongue;
- wherein the upward tongue has a width that corresponds to a distance in a direction parallel to the panel between a starting point of the upward flank of the upward tongue and an outer point on the downward flank of the upward tongue,
- wherein a distance between the starting point of the upward flank of the upward tongue and the outermost point of the curved portion of the upward tongue in a direction parallel to the panel equals x number of times the width of the upward tongue, wherein x is equal to or larger than 0.5,
- wherein the third coupling element is positioned at a vertical distance from the outermost point of the curved portion, and
- wherein the panel is configured to be coupled with an adjacent panel in a drop-and-lock configuration achieved by a vertical movement of the panel and the adjacent panel relative to one another.
