“I know that Olympiakos has 47 championships, that supporters create a great atmosphere here, an atmosphere that I can’t wait to feel and live,” the 24-year-old former Espanyol player said.
“My personal goal is to develop as a footballer, to gain experience, to help the team as much as I can. That’s why I have come and my goals will be those that the club has set and wants to conquer.”
