PAOK, who are looking at the two derbies, have a slight difference with Penia

In an advanced stage PAOK’s negotiations for his acquisition are underway Sergio Peñawho is Razvan Lucescu’s “chosen one” to strengthen the midfield of the Thessalonians.

The Peruvian midfielder’s contract with Malmo expires in January 2026 and there is clause that reaches 400,000 euros to continue his career in another team.

The “black and white” offer 2+1 year contract in international mediaoffering 6000,000 euros in annual earnings. The player’s representatives, however, they ask for 700,000 euroswith the difference of 100 thousand not looking capable of spoiling her looming transcript of the player in PAOK.

Contacts are ongoing and their outcome is expected soonwith the “Bicep of the North” wanting the player’s immediate arrival to begin to assimilate Lucescu’s philosophy.

PAOK, meanwhile, he has two derbies ahead of him. One is tomorrow with Panathinaikos at the Olympic Stadium behind closed doors, for the 17th matchday of the Stoiximan Super League, and the other with AEK in Toumba, in the rematch of the two teams for the quarter-finals of the Greek Cup.

Understandably, the Romanian coach he wants to make the best possible choices so that his team is 100% ready to play these demanding matches, the first for 2025.

Lucescu, after all, he will not be on the PAOK benchdue to the punishment imposed on him for what happened in the parking lot of the AEK stadium, and the only dilemma for tomorrow’s match with Panathinaikos seems to be in the center of the defense between Lovren and Koley since it is not O.K. Michaelides.

Also, not sure who he will be in the attack line of the “Two-Headed”, with Chalov looking to have the relative advantage over the other forwards of the team.
