Erzurumspor FK in reported talks for APOEL winger Gabriel Maioli

Turkish club Erzurumspor FK is reportedly nearing a deal to acquire Brazilian winger Gabriel Maioli from the Cypriot club APOEL. Reports from June 29, 2026, indicate that the two parties held a positive teleconference to discuss the transfer. While some sources suggest the deal is nearing completion, APOEL officials have clarified that no official offer has been received yet. Maioli is currently under contract with APOEL for two more years, meaning any transfer would require a formal agreement between the two clubs. The player struggled with injuries and inconsistent performance since joining the team. APOEL management remains open to negotiating a potential exit if a formal proposal is submitted. Any definitive move depends on satisfying the financial and legal requirements of the existing contract.
