However, they are not the only club after the Greek international, with Premier League counterparts Liverpool and Sheffield United, Scottish giants Rangers, La Liga’s Real Betis, Serie A duo Napoli and Inter Milan, Turkish League’s Fenerbahce and Galatasaray, Russian outfit Lokomotiv Moscow and Primeira Liga’s Porto all interested in acquiring him.
That is one hell of a long list and goes a long way in demonstrating that we are looking at someone who has potential to be one of Europe’s best.
Priced at £22 million, Tsimikas made 36 appearances this season across all competitions, managing seven assists as well as a number of excellent displays.

We do know there’s a player in there. He knows it. Other clubs definitely know it as well. Question is, who wants what, because there has been no clarity either from the club’s end or the player’s end.
Expect this to drag on.
