Deal agreed with Ludogorets for Petar Stanić, over €7m
Olympiacos have struck a deal with Ludogorets for winger Petar Stanić. The transfer will exceed €7 million, and an agreement is in place between the clubs (2). Manager José Luis Mendilibar gets a dynamic wide option as the summer rebuild gathers pace.
Stanić arrives with competition, multiple clubs had tracked the Serbian, but Olympiacos pushed it through. With Rodinei and Chiquinho already back in Greece training individually ahead of schedule, the squad is taking shape early.
Taremi denied by VAR at the World Cup
Mehdi Taremi thought he had scored for Iran against Belgium, but VAR ruled it out. A tight call in a tight group stage match. Taremi has been Iran's main man throughout the tournament and will feel hard done by.
What's next
Olympiacos sit second on 66 points from 32 games with a +34 goal difference as they plan for the new campaign. The Stanić deal is close, now it's about the dotted line.
