According to information from Novasports.gr, PAOK are talking to Nigerian Glasgow Rangers striker Cyriel Dessers, who has been the top scorer in a European tournament.
PAOK have been moving dynamically in the transfer market to strengthen their offensive line. It had been reported that the list of transfer candidates the Greek giants hoped to acquire ahead of next season had Danish striker Martin Braithwaite, who seems to be one of the team’s priorities for the striker position next season.
At the same time, according to information from Novasports.gr, the case of Dessers is also being considered seriously by the Greek side.
Discussions with Dessers are at an advanced level, with the financial offer reportedly submitted. Manager Razvan Lucescu wants to have next season’s team’s main striker at his disposal ahead of preparations. We must not forget that the Double-headed Eagle of The North try, through the qualifiers, to become the first Greek team to take part in the new format Champions League.
The forward, a six-cap Nigeria international, has experience in European competitions. In the 2021/22 season, he was the top scorer in the UEFA Conference League with 10 goals in 13 games for Dutch side Feyenoord.
Last summer in four games in the Champions League qualifiers he scored once against Servette and provided two assists in Rangers 2-2 draw with PSV Eindhoven.
