The transfer market generated great expectations around Gustavo Puerta's future between Benfica and Nottingham Forest at this end of the transfer window. The South American midfielder was the subject of strong approaches from both clubs, keeping the suspense in the air about what would be his destination. The mystery is solved with the confirmation that the player will represent Olympiacos on loan from Nottingham Forest, according to Sport24, from Greece. The English club will pay 16 million euros to Racing Santander for the "cafetero" player's clause, immediately loaning him to the Greek club controlled by the same owner. Evangelos Marinakis was at the center of the entire transfer operation between the various clubs involved. The executive himself had previously admitted the difficulty in the process, since the Colombian international had expressed a clear preference to head to Portuguese football to play at the Luz. Despite the player's initial wish, the player is already expected in Greece.
