Ioannidis nears Sporting move, Panathinaikos find replacement | OneFootball

If Fotis Ioannidis is lost to Sporting, Panathinaikos has already found a solution for their attack line. All indications suggest that the next name for the Athens club is Mehdi Taremi, formerly of Porto, who is currently with Inter Milan.

According to information from the portals SDNA and Fcinter1908, the management of the Hellenic capital's club has contacted members of the Nerazzurri to learn about the conditions for signing the Iranian international. Nevertheless, the Greeks are not the only ones interested in the former Porto player, as Sassuolo also covets him.

However, this scenario may not be necessary since the deal between Sporting and Panathinaikos for Fotis Ioannidis has reached an impasse. The Athens management demands 22 million euros fixed for their team captain, while the Alvalade Club's management has no intention of paying more than 20M for the striker.

This barrier in the negotiation process may also influence the life of Conrad Harder. The young Dane already has an agreement to leave the Lions for Milan, but he is only permitted to travel to Italy once the talks for Ioannidis are officially concluded. If the transfer does not go through, the 'number 9' might indeed stay at Alvalade until the end of this season.

Last season, wearing the Inter Milan jersey, Mehdi Taremi - valued at 3.5 million euros - played 43 games: 26 in Serie A, 12 in the Champions League, three in the Coppa Italia, and two in the Italian Super Cup. In 1,887 minutes of play, the Iranian forward scored three goals and provided nine assists.
