Leeds circling Tzolakis
Leeds United have put Olympiacos goalkeeper Konstantinos Tzolakis on their transfer radar, according to Greek reports (1). No formal bid yet, but the interest is real. Tzolakis, 23, has been your undisputed No. 1 and losing him would sting. Leeds are back in the Premier League and can offer wages that are hard to match. Keep an eye on this one.
Miszta lined up as replacement
The club isn't waiting around. Olympiacos have already identified Rio Ave's Polish goalkeeper Miszta as a target, with both Botis and Paschalakis expected to leave this summer (2). It suggests Mendilibar is preparing for a full goalkeeper room reset if Tzolakis goes too. Miszta, 24, has been a regular in Portugal and fits the profile of a young, ball-playing keeper.
Nikolaidis: lift the trophy in Piraeus, then focus on the Final Four
After the win over Panathinaikos, Dimitris Nikolaidis kept it simple: win the domestic title in Piraeus first, then turn everything toward the Champions League Final Four (5). The veteran's quote, «Να σηκώσουμε το τρόπαιο στον Πειραιά και να επικεντρωθούμε στο Final 4», captures exactly where the squad's head is at. One step at a time. No one's getting ahead of themselves.
