Olympiacos want Gustavo Puerto, but Racing Santander are not budging. The Colombian midfielder has a €20 million release clause, and the Spanish club have already rejected Bologna's €16 million offer (1). Manager José María Aragón praised Puerto and teammate Jorge Salinas for their professionalism despite the interest: "They have raised their level in training. We hope they stay, that would be ideal for us. But if big clubs appear, things get more difficult" (1). Olympiacos, still smarting from a 0–0 Champions League qualifier draw with NEC that drew whistles at Karaiskakis, need reinforcements, Puerto fits the profile, but only at Santander's price.
