Bombshell! Sporting could make another move for Fotis Ioannidis | OneFootball

Fotis Ioannidis is back on Sporting's radar. The Greek international had already been a target for the lions about a year ago, and now, thanks to Conrad Harder's potential departure, the greens and whites have put the Panathinaikos player on the list of possible replacements.

According to information revealed by the newspaper A Bola, there are several forwards referenced by the green and white structure - such as Clayton, from Rio Ave. However, Ioannidis' name stands out due to the saga involving the striker and the lions in the last summer market.

At the time, Sporting made every effort to secure the Greek player's signing from Panathinaikos, but the Athens emblem never facilitated negotiations and always asked for 25 million euros for the player's signing, something that was seen as unbearable for the lions' coffers.

This time, the same source reveals that Ioannidis is seen as "the strongest candidate to head to Alvalade" when Harder's transfer is finalized, with Rennes and Milan, who are both intensifying their intentions with Sporting to sign the Danish player.

In the last 2024/25 season, while playing for Panathinaikos, Ioannidis - valued at 15 million euros - had numbers below expectations. In 42 games played, the forward scored 11 goals and provided two assists. Now, he can leave for a fee of 20 million euros.
