Benfica target could be Rui Borges’ Christmas surprise at Sporting | OneFootball

Giannis Konstantelias is being contested by Sporting and Benfica, but the Lions may make an effort to give Rui Borges a Christmas present. Although Yeremay Hernández is the top priority for the green and whites, the Alvalade club sees the Greek international as a strong alternative.

“The reports on Giannis Konstantelias were not so positive, and PAOK’s desire to receive more than €30 million for the Greek international has cooled the interest of Sporting’s management,” writes the newspaper Record, in the print edition of this Wednesday, November 12.

Giannis Konstantelias is one of several names referenced by Sporting to strengthen the much-desired winger position. The Greek international, capped 17 times (in which he scored four goals), is also on Benfica’s radar, but the Alvalade club will not enter into bidding wars for the 22-year-old player.

This season, playing for PAOK, Giannis Konstantelias – valued at 17 million euros – has played 17 matches: eight in the National Championship, eight in the Europa League, and one in the Cup. In the 1,378 minutes he has been on the field, the Greek club’s winger has scored seven goals and provided three assists.
