Apollon Limassol in advanced negotiations for forward Joel Asoro

Apollon Limassol is currently engaged in advanced negotiations to sign 27-year-old Swedish-Nigerian forward Joel Asoro. The player is currently on loan at Djurgården from the French club FC Metz, with his loan agreement set to expire on August 15, 2026. Apollon officials are working to finalize the deal quickly to secure his availability for the upcoming UEFA Conference League third qualifying round matches against Brann in Norway.

Asoro is viewed by Apollon’s planning department as a versatile offensive solution capable of playing on both wings or as a center-forward. He brings significant international experience to the team, having previously competed in top leagues across England, Italy, the Netherlands, and Wales. As the Apollon squad arrived in Bergen for their European fixture, reports confirmed the club remains focused on strengthening its attacking line, with manager Hernán Losada seeking to add depth before the European registration deadlines.
