Sporting star wants Rui Borges to change his tactics | OneFootball

Rui Borges sees Luis Suárez as the starting striker for Sporting. However, Fotis Ioannidis is focused and extremely motivated to be the main choice of the green and white coach in the near future, becoming the coach's preferred forward.

According to information advanced by the newspaper Record, Ioannidis shows up at the Cristiano Ronaldo Academy earlier than the usual training of Sporting, in order to get some extra work done, focusing on improving his performance.

On the other hand, Rui Borges has been training Ioannidis with some peculiarities. The Hellenic has been tested on the left, in Pote's place, but also in a system with two forwards, pairing with Luis Suárez - a situation that could be an option throughout the season.

The same source states that the integration process of Ioannidis - who made history at Sporting - is almost completed, since the house he bought in Portugal is ready to live in. The player will move permanently, and will be visited by Georgios Vagiannidis, whom he has known for several seasons.

This season, with the Sporting jersey, Fotis Ioannidis - valued at 15 million euros - has played three matches. The 25-year-old Greek international forward has played 62 minutes, and has already scored a goal with the green and white stripes.
