Developments in Olympiacos and PAOK transfer negotiations

Dimitris Giannoulis, the 30-year-old defender from Augsburg, is at the center of transfer negotiations between Greek clubs. PAOK has submitted an improved offer totaling 4 million euros, comprising 3 million in fixed fees and 1 million in bonuses. Meanwhile, Olympiacos has withdrawn from the pursuit of Giannoulis after the player requested additional time to provide a final response. German media reports suggest the potential transfer of Giannoulis to PAOK has stalled, noting interest from other Greek and English clubs. Separately, Olympiacos is nearing the acquisition of 28-year-old right-back Pablo Maffeo from Mallorca, with reports indicating a financial agreement is in place pending the player's final consent. Additionally, Olympiacos is expected to finalize the transfer of midfielder Unai Lopez, pending his formal signature after his vacation. Dimitris Stournaras is also set to return to Olympiacos as the third-choice goalkeeper.
