Koulierakis joins Roma, PAOK reaches Europa League

Entities: Konstantinos Koulierakis · VfL Wolfsburg · PAOK · AS Roma · Givairo Read

Overview

AS Roma completed the signing of 22‑year‑old Greek centre‑back Konstantinos Koulierakis from VfL Wolfsburg. Initial reports cited a €15 million fee, later clarified to €16.5 million plus up to €1.5 million in performance‑related bonuses, bringing the total value to roughly €17 million. Wolfsburg retained a 20 % sell‑on clause; PAOK, Koulierakis’s former Greek club, is expected to receive about €650 000 from that clause.

Koulierakis travelled to Rome on 1 August for his medical, then signed a five‑year contract running to the summer of 2031 with an annual salary of about €2 million. Roma also moved for other targets that day, securing Argentine striker Santiago Castro for €35 million and tabled a €25 million offer for Dutch right‑back Givairo Read.

In Greek football, PAOK beat Dynamo Kyiv 2‑0 in the second leg of the Europa League third‑qualifying round, advancing 5‑2 on aggregate and setting up a tie with Anderlecht, thereby securing a Europa League spot.
