O Athletico Paranaense You've been living a good time. After qualifying for the quarter finals of the Copa do Brasil and winning this weekend, CAP now prepares for Libertadores. One of the highlights of 2023 has been midfielder Alex Santana.
The stocking was contracted by the CAP in the middle of 2022 and has been adapting increasingly to the team. On the weekend, Alex Santana was one of the highlights of Paulo Turra's team. The good moment did not pass hit the ball market and the player caught attention.
According to Globo Sport, the AEK, from Greece, showed interest in hiring the midfielder. In fact, the greeks are already talking to the player's stafe to enable their departure in the middle of the year. However, the CAP is in no hurry and will only release for a sum considered high.
"According to the calculation of ge, the AEK has already sought Alex Santana's staff to begin negotiations. The transfer window opens on July 3. Internally, the Athletico is in no hurry for an agreement and will only release the sock for a value that it considers significant."
Says the EG.
The AEK Athens seeks in Alex Santana an alternative to the Mexican Orbelín Pineda, highlight of the team, which has loan bond closed on 30 June and the transfer window opens on 03/07.
In this situation, it is worth remembering that the paranaense team paid 2.5 million euros (R)$ 13 million in the quotation of the season) to Ludogorets, from Bulgaria to get Alex to Curitiba last year. Valued, the stocking should be much more than that this time.
Since July 2022 at Athletico, Santana already adds 44 games, with nine goals scored and one assist. Six of those nine left this season in very important matches as against CRB – for the Brazilian Cup – and against the LibertadFor the Copa Libertadores. Last year, half scored goal in the semifinal of the continental competition, against the Palm trees, in the Arena da Baixada.
No hiring of the Greek club in the current season exceeds 2 million euros
Of the five arrivals with a value disbursed by AEK Athens, three are close to the 2.5 million euros paid by Athletico by Alex Santana – that of half-right Niclas Eliasson (2M euros), Nimes-FRA, and those of attackers Steven Zuber (1.6M euros) and Mijat Gacinovic (1M euros), the Germans Frankfurt and Hoffenheim respectively.
The largest hire in the history of the Greek club was Vasilios Tsiartas, in the 2000/2001 season, with an investment of 3.5 million euros. Only two others, throughout the club's history, exceed the amount paid by Athletico for the second wheel, which, in the current quotation, reaches R$13.2 million.
For Santana's position, the AEK has Mexican Orbelín Pineda, borrowed from Celta de Vigo-ESP, in a bond that ends on the next day 30. The team's highlight, half had 10 goals and three assists in 42 games in the club's championship season, which enters the preliminary stages of the Uefa Champions League competition, already played by Alex Santana in his Ludogorets-BUL days.
