Vagiannidis breaks his silence on Sporting move: I couldn't... | OneFootball

Vagiannidis was hired by Panathinaikos for around 12 million euros in the transfer window and spoke about Sporting

Georgios Vagiannidis says he is delighted with Sporting. The right-back defender was hired by Panathinaikos in the summer transfer window for 12 million euros (an amount that can grow depending on the achievement of objectives), and spoke for the first time about the change and the time he has already spent in Alvalade.

The revelations are made in a recent interview, granted by the Greek defender to BetanoMag. The conversation has not yet been published, but an excerpt was revealed by the publication itself, where Vagiannidis can be heard talking about his first impressions of the new team and his colleagues in green and white.

"I already expected the level to be high, but it's even higher than I thought. The players, in fact, have a lot of quality; I couldn't highlight just one. In general, the team has a lot of quality", began to explain the player who has already assisted a goal since his arrival, a short time ago.

Georgios Vagiannidis continued, with kind words for his new teammates, also praising the hospitality of the work group: "The atmosphere in the locker room is fantastic. The players have received me very well since the first day".

"I couldn't have asked for better. The atmosphere is fantastic and my colleagues have a great personality. I felt at home from the first day", completed the right-back defender, an international for the Greek national team, who this summer left Panathinaikos to reinforce Sporting.
