Updates on the Fotis Ioannidis track: Sporting ready for relaunch
Duel at a distance between Sporting Lisbon And Bologna for Fotis Ioannidisstriker born in 2000 of Panathinaikos.
Yesterday the Greek team gathered for the start of the new season and Ioannidis was present, but the transfer market is looming over him with the greens of Lisbon and the rossoblùs of Bologna eager to buy him. On the Bologna side, there were important days last week with his agent in Casteldebole and a video call between the management and the player, who gave his approval to the destination. Four-year option on the plate. But come on Ioannidis there is also Sporting Lisbon who saw their first proposal rejected Panathinaikos. A Portuguese raise of 18 million euros is expected in the next few hours, but even that shouldn’t be successful given that the Greeks are asking for 25, a lot for Bologna too. Sartori and Di Vaio will try to find the right balance, but it won’t be easy, all while the Panathinakos tries to retain Ioannidis by proposing a contract adjustment. According to Greek sources, the player’s partner would also have a burden given that the two are very close and will evaluate the best option together. The Bologna remains absolutely in the running but Sporting are not giving up and are aiming for a relaunch in the next few hours. The Greek striker, obviously, would represent Zirkzee’s replacement in the event that the transfer takes place via clause. Last season Ioannidis scored 23 goals in all competitions, including the Europa League, in 44 games. He is Sartori’s chosen one.
