Sporting CP Coach: "Ioannidis Has Been a Target for a Long Time"

Sporting CP coach, Rui Borges, confirmed the club's interest in Panathinaikos player, Fotis Ioannidis. In his statements, Borges mentioned that Ioannidis has been a target for the team for a long time, even before his arrival on the Sporting bench.
According to reports in Portugal, Fotis Ioannidis is the main candidate to strengthen Sporting CP's attacking line. "A Bola" reported that the Greek striker is back on the "lions'" radar a year later.
Rui Borges stated: "We can talk about anything after the transfer window closes. Ioannidis has been a target for us for a long time. Sporting wanted to sign him before I came here. I don't hide from transfer issues, but the ideal time to talk about it is after the transfer market closes."
