Giannis Konstantelias on Sporting’s radar, Lions weigh up their priorities… | OneFootball

Giannis Konstantelias is the main option for Sporting if the deal for Yeremay Hernández falls through. The Greek player from PAOK is seen in Alvalade as the best possibility at this stage of the transfer market, despite the lions facing competition from rival Benfica for the player.

According to information advanced by the newspaper A Bola, the Greek international is seen as plan B by the Alvalade Club, in case the green and white SAD and the managers of Deportivo de A Corunha do not reach an agreement for the 22-year-old Spanish left winger. Still, the deal with the Salónica emblem is not expected to be easy.

Seen as one of the jewels of the formation, PAOK has no intention of selling Giannis Konstantelias. As an example of this, there is the fact that the Greek international offensive midfielder has been associated with Benfica and Stuttgart in this transfer window. Not wanting to give up on the player, the black and whites rewarded the player with a contract renewal and salary increase.

Still, the main focus of Sporting in this transfer market continues to be Yeremay Hernández. Frederico Varandas has not given up on the player after a proposal of 25M + 5M was rejected, and the SAD of the Alvalade Club even intends to make an offer with higher values than the previously mentioned one.

In 2025/26, with the PAOK jersey, Giannis Konstantelias - valued at 17 million euros - has already played four games and 369 minutes. The 22-year-old offensive midfielder is seen as one of the greatest promises of Greek football, having already scored four goals in 13 games for the Greek national team.
