20 Million Euros from Beşiktaş for Pavlidis
Beşiktaş has rolled up its sleeves for the transfer of Benfica's Greek striker Vangelis Pavlidis. According to the news from the Portuguese press's Correio da Manhã, the black-and-white management submitted an offer to Benfica for the Greek centre-forward consisting of 20 million Euros cash and performance bonuses; however, the Portuguese team found this figure insufficient and demanded 50 million Euros in the counter-offer. On the Pavlidis side, it was stated that the player will be at the pre-season camp that will begin under new manager Marco Silva at the end of the month.
