First the failed redemption by Empoli, then theEuropean as a key player in his Romania, so the market is starting to make the first sirens heard. Protagonist Razvan MarinRomanian midfielder owned by Cagliari who awaits his destiny between a possible return to Sardinia and a definitive farewell. A new suitor is in the window, with the possibility of finding on his path one of the coaches who ended up on the rossoblù radar before the choice of Davide Nicola.
PAOK again
Namesakes and fellow countrymen. Razvan Lucescu and Razvan Marin they could meet near Thessaloniki, because the PAOKat least according to what comes from Greece, would have aimed the lens at the midfielder born in ’96 from Bucharest. Returning to Cagliari after the two-year loan period at Empoli, Marin would find the same Nicola in Sardinia with whom he shared the last months in Tuscany, achieving salvation together. The former Ajax player, who arrived in the rossoblù in the summer of 2020, would not have closed the doors to a stay at Cagliari, but the contract issue appears to be a difficult obstacle to overcome in order to reconcile the player’s will with that of the club. One million net until June 2025, a salary considered too high and which leads president Tommaso Giulini’s club not to rule out – far from it – the permanent transfer of the midfielder. And the eyes of PAOK Thessaloniki have fallen on Marin, who have a primary need to shore up their squad with a midfielder with the Romanian’s characteristics. According to what comes from Greece, however, there would be a detail that would put Marin in second place among the wishes of the Greek club. The desire to want to close with the purchase in the middle of the field as soon as possible clashes with the European Championship Germany which, in fact, would delay the arrival at PAOK Of Marin. For this reason in the two-man race with Misic of Dynamo Zagreb at the moment the latter appears to be the favourite. With the Cagliari who looks interested, in the knowledge that in order not to put a capital loss on the balance sheet, the starting point for a possible transfer would be a valuation of two million euros, essentially the amount not paid by Empoli for the right of redemption.
Hellenic route
To add further strength to the voices coming from Greece also the presence on the PAOK bench of that Lucescu who Cagliari tried to bring to Sardinia before turning on Nicola. In fact, the coach of the Hellenic champions Bianconeri, in addition to being a compatriot of Marin, also shares the agent, Pietro Chiodi, with the rossoblù midfielder. A further element that leads the Greek media to push the option Marin for the midfield of PAOK. On one route, the one between Sardinia and Greecewhich could also be taken by Pantelis Hatzidiakosat the top of the wish list of Panathinaikos to reinforce the rear guard. The former power plant AZ Alkmaaras reported this morning, June 26, would be the number one objective of the Greens Athens, with an offer that would be set on the loan with right of redemption. If in the case of Marin it is an idea that is currently still in its embryonic stage, however Hatzidiakos the Greek media confirm the player’s willingness to accept the court of the club where he grew up before moving to the Netherlands, with Cagliari not closing the doors to the negotiation.
