González deal agreed, André Luiz sold for record $18m

González deal agreed with Chivas

Olympiacos have an agreement with Chivas for Armando González, the Mexican striker who scored 24 goals last season (1) (3) (7). Negotiations progressed quickly, and Chivas are analysing his departure seriously (3). El Sol de México reports the move is close to official (7).

Mexican pundits set the bar high

Christian Martinoli and Luis García did not hold back on González's likely move to Piraeus. "Ahí sí va a tener que meter gol," they said, meaning he will have to actually score there (9).

André Luiz sold for record $18m

Olympiacos have completed a club-record sale, sending André Luiz to Sporting Kansas City for $18m (4). It is the biggest outgoing fee in the club's history.

Vargas on the radar

Olympiacos are reportedly tracking Sevilla's Vargas as a potential target (5). Nothing confirmed yet.

Next match

Atromitos away on Saturday, August 22 at 21:00 CEST, in the Super League Greece opener.
