There is a clear focus on securing an additional left-back, along with plans to acquire a winger (capable of playing as a midfielder and behind the striker) and another forward to complement El Kaabi and Kostoulas. Meanwhile, Yaremchuk remains a question mark, as he has not been utilized by the coach in recent weeks. Depending on emerging needs, other moves may also occur, while departures from the current roster are expected in January.

Regarding these positions, the left-back is the most advanced case. The shortlist for this role includes very specific targets. The plan appears to be that Athanasiou, who has already been secured, will join Olympiacos in the summer, while the left-back signed in January will form a partnership with Ortega. The arrival of a new full-back could also impact Apostolopoulos, but these developments will unfold in due course, as there is still ample time until the January transfer window.

In terms of transfers, Olympiacos has increasingly focused on the Brazilian and Argentine markets in recent years. These two countries offer numerous strong player options for every position.
