Atromitos is reportedly close to signing Simos Mitoglou, in addition to Steven Tsumber, significantly strengthening their defense. The 26-year-old defender is expected to leave AEK as a free agent, with the 'Union' retaining a percentage of any future transfer fee, and sign a 1.5-year contract with Atromitos. He has already undergone medical examinations. This transfer represents a significant investment for Atromitos, as Mitoglou has experience at a high level and is considered a player who can upgrade the team. Initially, Mitoglou's prospect was a transfer to Sampdoria, but the failure of that agreement led to contact with Atromitos. Yannis Angelopoulos and Giorgos Spanopoulos played a crucial role in completing the deal, seeking to strengthen the Greek element in the team.
