Olympiacos eyes left‑back Giannoulis and finalises defender Mafeo signing

Olympiacos is speeding up its transfer activity ahead of the new season. The club has placed German international left‑back Dimitris Giannoulis, currently at Augsburg, at the top of its target list and is reportedly close to securing his move despite ongoing negotiations with the Bundesliga side.

The club is also about to complete the signing of 28‑year‑old centre‑back Pablo Mafeo from Mallorca, with only the final administrative details remaining. In addition, Olympiacos is considering backup goalkeeper Balša Popović for the second‑choice spot behind keeper Jan Oblak and is scouting two midfielders – one a creative playmaker and the other a more defensive, high‑intensity distributor – to balance its middle‑field options.
