pash Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 How could we possibly need that many midfielders?! I'm hoping it's a high-quality CB, myself.
BostonThanatos Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Could be more for future use. Maybe Canas is on his way out, Wernbloom is worthless and Sakhov is a substitute level option. Leaving only Mauricio and Misic really...and Misic is a loaner. Maybe it is the CB that was rumored last week, that Savvidis verified is in the works.
pash Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 This is the guy InPAOK is pushing: https://www.transfermarkt.com/sergio-oliveira/profil/spieler/112465
BostonThanatos Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Seems like a solid pickup if true. Young player, called up to Portuguese national team recently, looks like he came up in the Porto youth system. Loaned out very often, but that doesn't mean much, honestly.
pash Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) Teams like us need to find players who are slipping between the cracks and then exploit their skills. Akpom is exactly that kind of guy. Give him some stability, some time to shine...I don't hate this move. I'm sure the skills compilation videos will be incoming as well. Canas, btw, may have shot himself in the foot with these injuries. Shakhov looks better than ever and if we can only have one...he might be that one. -edit- A Bola says this is a loan with purchase option. Yayyy more loans. This guy is gonna be expensive if we end up getting him. Edited January 30, 2019 by pash
Blackhawk Posted January 30, 2019 Author Posted January 30, 2019 Apparently it's a done deal. He is to report to PAOK tomorrow, when he will be officially announced.
Blackhawk Posted January 30, 2019 Author Posted January 30, 2019 Kitsiou loan was announced by Ankaragucu with the following greeting:
pash Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Terribly tacky Savvidis confirmed its Oliveira via instagram, as well. They did well keeping this under wraps.
Blackhawk Posted January 30, 2019 Author Posted January 30, 2019 Six mil buyout option for Oliveira. He better be that good if he wants to wear the PAOK jersey next season.
BostonThanatos Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Pash, looks like you got your wish....reports are that the Sverrir Ingason deal is all but signed.
pash Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Just read that myself. Interesting stuff https://www.sdna.gr/podosfairo/superleague/article/562316/trela-ivan-ekleise-kai-o-ingkason
Blackhawk Posted January 30, 2019 Author Posted January 30, 2019 Pretty much means Khacheridi is gone. Would not be surprised if is sold/loaned by tomorrow.
pash Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 It would be irresponsible of us to not do it now, assuming this deal happens. Let's pray for a sale
kozi Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 Credit goes to Savvidi for bringing in players of adequate quality to strengthen squad.
PAOKSYD Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 This Oliviera signing is crazy for me, Porto player CL player, 7m value on transfermarket.
ApoloVaz Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 This Oliveira is better than Samaris, good passing, good at set pieces, good positioning not very brave imo, overal is a very good signing for you.
paokarag4 Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 His stats do look impressive. Wonder if he'll force his way into our starting XI with Lucescu generally anti-change, especially when the team is winning. If he is as good as they are saying then he'll be the starter in no time next to Mauricio with Shakhov, Misic and Canas becoming depth options. Canas may even be 5th in the pecking order when all is said and done. We'll see how he goes. Honestly didn't expect this many players coming in, I guess 2 are loan returns and we've taken 2 players on loan. Buying one (Swiderski) and waiting for our 2nd to be announced Ingason. Our squad all of a sudden is very very big again
pash Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 Realistically, would the team take a guy on loan that we wouldn't hypothetically be willing to pay for? 6 million is a very steep price for a Greek team to pay. Recall that Stoch's buy-out was only 2/3 of that and it didn't happen (though I also recall the s%$#! show that was the team, back then). I'm mostly excited/interested in the Rostov move. He's due to land in two and a half hours (the Porto player should have landed a half hour ago). Fingers crossed on this one. Usually, when journos have comments like this, it's not a terrible sign:
Bananas Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 Not seeing what the big deal is with Oliveira. I suppose we'll see.
pash Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 Saw this re: Ingason...if we actually pay 7mm, I'll be shocked. https://www.frettabladid.is/sport/paok-ekki-tilbui-a-greia-uppsett-ver-fyrir-sverri
Blackhawk Posted January 31, 2019 Author Posted January 31, 2019 The last two signings bring the team to another level. They were done with CL qualifying in mind. Not only that we are dropping the team age average. That tells me that we are also thinking long term.
pash Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 Maybe an even more important point - if these guys work out, it means they'll be fully acclimated by the time the next European campaign begins this summer. Will be huge to have an established team, even if Varela/Canas/Shakhov/Prijovic/Warda are not there. This is gonna be a good summer. I saw on a few more sites that the payment to Rostov is 4mm or 6mm...so really, nobody has any idea. Big money either way. 1
pash Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 On 1/28/2019 at 1:49 PM, Blackhawk said: Branco in an interview said that transfers are over for this period. Is he playing 3D chess with us?
BostonThanatos Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) And the buyout for Oliveira is 12mm too if I recall. Edited January 31, 2019 by BostonThanatos
Blackhawk Posted January 31, 2019 Author Posted January 31, 2019 I would not believe any figures that appear in Greek media.
