The club of the capital of Italy, in its announcement, declares that from Piraeus "Olympiacos" acquired 23-year-old Greek national team defender Kostas Manolas. The Greek club will pay 13 million euros in redemption and an additional 2 million for the player's achievements.
The 185 cm tall player had a very good season last year, and his team became the champion of the country and reached the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League.
Manolas also received praise for his performance in the World Cup in Brazil, where he traveled with the national team to the quarter-finals, but lost to Costa Rica after an 11-meter penalty shootout.
The Greek will replace Moroccan Mehdi Benatia, who has moved to Munich's "Bayern".
