Olympiacos multi-sport athlete acquisitions

Overview

Olympiacos has engaged in roster reinforcements across both its basketball and football departments.

In basketball, the club acquired Senegalese forward/center Embi Diaye (also referred to as Empaidi Ndiaie) from ASVEL Villeurbanne. The 27-year-old, noted for his athleticism and rebounding, arrived in Athens for medical examinations. Diaye expressed enthusiasm for the atmosphere at the Peace and Friendship Stadium, stating his goal is to help the team achieve ‘back-to-back’ EuroLeague success.

In football, the club officially signed 34-year-old Swiss midfielder Remo Freuler on a two-year contract. Joining as a free agent following his tenure with Bologna in Serie A, Freuler has completed medical examinations and is set to begin training under coach José Luis Mendilibar.

Further transfer activity is underway in the football department as negotiations progress for 23-year-old Mexican striker Armando González from Chivas. While the player’s representative is reportedly in Greece and the player is eager to move to Europe, a gap remains between the current offer and Chivas’ valuation. Reports suggest Olympiacos is working toward a potential offer in the range of 8 to 10 million euros to secure his services.
