With Pinedas belonging to AEK for the next four years, Giorgos Tsakiris carried the relevant announcement on his “air” News Bulletin 247 information that had not been made known since the Union’s negotiations with Telta.
As he mentioned, the point that was the biggest problem until they reached the final agreement was the percentage of the player’s rights with the Spanish club trying to keep a percentage and refusing to give 100% of Pineda’s rights to AEK .
“The percentage had started from 50-50… Then it was 70-30 and finally at 3 in the morning despite the fact that the transfer was closed and we reached the 100% that AEK wanted”, said Giorgos Tsakiris, among others.
Apart from these, the AEK reporter underlined that the player’s attitude was decisive in all negotiations. As Pineda mentioned, during the days of the discussions, he had refused any other offer, from England or even from Telta to stay in it, stressing in every way that his desire is to fight under the orders of Matias Almeida in the team that raised his career again.
