AEK Athens secures Croatian midfielder Lovro Majer from Wolfsburg

AEK Athens has reached a formal agreement with German club Wolfsburg to sign 28-year-old Croatian midfielder Lovro Majer. The transfer fee is reported to be over 6 million euros, making it the most expensive acquisition in the history of the Greek club. Majer, who previously played for Dinamo Zagreb and Rennes, is expected to sign a four-year contract through 2030, with annual net earnings reportedly around 2 million euros.

Following the agreement, Majer is scheduled to travel to the Netherlands to join the AEK squad at their pre-season training camp. He is expected to undergo medical and ergonomic examinations before officially finalizing the deal. The move is viewed as a strategic reinforcement for the team's midfield, with the club looking to replace Orbelin Pineda and add creative quality to their attacking lineup.

While various sources confirm the transfer, there is a slight variation in the timeline, as some reports indicated his travel for July 28, while others noted he would arrive later in the week. The club aims to integrate the Croatian international into the squad immediately to prepare for the upcoming season under coach Marko Nikolic.
