David Carmo returns to Olympiacos as Amrabat interest grows

David Carmo is back, third time at Piraeus

David Carmo landed in Greece early Monday morning, set to sign for Olympiacos for the third time (1) (2). The Angolan centre-back was instrumental in your 2024 Conference League triumph, and now he returns. The deal is done.

Photos show Carmo arriving in Athens, and the club are expected to formalise the move imminently (2). No surprises here, the €8m framework had been in place. He knows the city, the dressing room, and Mendilibar's demands.

Olympiacos enter the Amrabat race

Another midfield name has surfaced. Olympiacos are interested in Sofyan Amrabat, the Moroccan midfielder who spent last season at Real Betis (4). Competition is stiff, other clubs are circling. No bid yet, but the interest is concrete. Amrabat's World Cup pedigree and La Liga experience make him exactly the profile your club have been chasing this summer.

Fan reactions

The buzz around Carmo's return is loud. Supporters remember what he brought in 2024, composure, physicality, a genuine connection with the fanbase. The Amrabat link has split opinion: some see a world-class anchor, others worry about wages and competition from bigger leagues. The consensus? If the club pull off both, this window flips from ambitious to transformative. Join the discussion on Reddit
