The moves Olympiacos is preparing to make in the winter transfer window.
With regard to the additions to the roster ahead of January, according to information, Olympiacos is aiming to move for the acquisition of a left back and a winger, while the possibility of reinforcements at the top of the attack is open.
Regarding the left back, the “red and whites” do not want a repeat of the situation when Ortega is absent, with Mendiliber being forced to change two or even three players on the left side (Kostinia, Pirola, Apostolopoulos). Also, the matches are many in the domestic and international competitions and they do not come out with the Argentinian footballer playing 90 minutes in a row. The Piraeus team wants a player who can compete with Ortega, i.e. a potential starter, which is why they are scanning the foreign market.
At the same time, as we have reported a month ago, Olympiacos has signed Nikos Athanasiou from Atromitos Athens, but for now, the plan is for the 23-year-old left back to remain in the Peristeri team until the summer, getting more games under his feet . Unless things change in the next month and a half, which is unlikely at the moment.
One… second Gelson Martins
As for the positions of the wingers, the “red and whites” want a footballer with a fluency in scoring, who will be able to create and distribute assists, as Gelson Martins does and as his compatriot Daniel Pontense did last season. And if it is possible, under certain conditions, he can play behind the center forward, as Kostas Fortounis and Daniel Pontense were able to do, but also Yussuf Yazizi, who was injured and will miss the entire season.
Olympiacos hasn’t gotten much in the season so far from Masoura, Willian hasn’t helped, while Velde has had a lot of ups and downs in his performance. As for Papakanellos, who can be a solution, he hasn’t gotten many opportunities to date.
In addition, regarding the reinforcement in the center forward position, all the weight for the time being has fallen on the backs of Ayoub El Kaabi and the Piraeus team is starting to get things from Haralambos Kostoula as well. However, from the moment that the two can co-exist in the eleven, as in the match against PAOK in Toumba, with the Moroccan as a forward and the Greek ace as a peripheral attacker, the “red and whites” need to have another striker on the bench their. Someone will say that there is a solution for Roman Yaremchuk, but the Ukrainian international has just one goal in the three months of his presence at Olympiakos.
