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

Vagiannidis was signed from Panathinaikos for about 12 million euros in the transfer window, and spoke about Sporting

Georgios Vagiannidis says he is delighted with Sporting. The right-back was signed from Panathinaikos in the summer transfer window for 12 million euros (an amount that can increase 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 given by the Greek defender to BetanoMag. The conversation has not yet been published, but an excerpt was revealed by the publication itself, where you can hear Vagiannidis talking about his first impressions of the new team and his green and white colleagues.

"I expected the level to be high but it is even higher than I thought. The players, in fact, have a lot of quality; I can't single out one. In general, the team has a lot of quality", began the player who has already assisted in a goal since he arrived, not long ago.

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

"I couldn't have asked for better. The environment is fantastic and my teammates have great personalities. I felt at home from the first day", completed the right-back, international for the Greek national team, who this summer left Panathinaikos to strengthen Sporting.
