Giannis Konstantelias is one of the names mentioned by Benfica, but the truth is that the PAOK winger may end up heading to... Sporting. According to information advanced by the newspaper A Bola, Frederico Varandas has his eye on the athlete who was already in Rui Costa's plans.
According to the same source, Sporting is considering moving forward with Giannis Konstantelias as the deal for Yeremay seems almost impossible, after Deportivo de La Coruña rejected a bid of 25 million euros, plus 5 million upon the completion of certain objectives, for the young Spanish player.
However, at this stage, Sporting will be fully focused on Georgiy Sudakov, and to close the deal, Benfica will have to make a significant effort.
If Benfica doesn't manage to sign Sudakov, the Eagles may turn their attention to Giannis Konstantelias, which would be a cheaper option. It remains to be seen if, by then, the player won't already be a reinforcement for Sporting, in a week that promises to be quite busy.
This season, with PAOK's jersey, Giannis Konstantelias – valued at 17 million euros – has played three matches in the Europa League qualification phase. In the 284 minutes he was used, the player did an excellent job, despite not scoring any goals.
