Sporting are looking to sell several players outside Ruben Amorim’s ranks to raise the funds needed to sign Ioannidis. The idea is that cards outside the pack can finance what the coach sees as an asset to the attacking front.
The Greek striker is the reinforcement desired by the coach, who has not yet identified a second alternative on which the Green and White directors can focus. The priority remains reaching an agreement with Panathinaikos.
Sporting insisted on paying 18 million euros for the forward. A little more than he received for Fatawa (sold to English club Leicester). They also offered Sotiris a pass in addition to this amount, but the Athenian club refused this offer.
The plan, you know. CMnow suggests a slight increase in the cash value to be paid to Ioannidis, using money from the transfer of other surpluses. Marsa (he left Andorra for Malin, with the Lions retaining 50% of the deal) was the first. Tanlongo and Iovane are other hypotheses.
