This summer, the Panathinaikos striker has already been linked to Celtic, Ipswich Town, Lille, and Sporting Lisbon.
According to sources in Greece, Leicester City has entered a highly competitive transfer hunt for Panathinaikos attacker Fotis Ioannidis.
The 24-year-old center striker Ioannidis has been connected to a high-profile move this summer after scoring 23 goals in the previous campaign—by far his most productive to date.
The 11-time Greece international has reportedly attracted the attention of Bologna, Lille, Sporting Lisbon, Celtic, Fulham, and West Ham, among others. Links have been made quickly. Ipswich Town, a Premier League newbie, has reportedly been leading the race over the past two weeks, with rumours circulating that offers between £19 million and £21 million had been turned down.
According to recent rumors from Greece, Panathinaikos may be tempted to release their hold on the striker, who was connected to Nottingham Forest prior to Steve Cooper’s tenure as manager, with a further offer that would “shake the bank in the air.” Leicester is reportedly investigating their financial options in order to make the move this summer.
SDNA report: “An additional Premier League club is concentrating on the Panathinaikos bomber and everything that comes with it. All of Ioannidis’s data is being meticulously examined by Leicester to see if he can be acquired during the current transfer window.
It should be mentioned that the Foxes witnessed the Greek ace in action during the previous season,
