Vlachodimos returns feeling the crowd’s heat

Odysseus Flashodemus trained this Tuesday in Seixal with his teammates and received affection from the fans when he left the training centre, taking more than twenty photos and handing out autographs. A warm welcome from the fans, in a delicate moment for the footballer who did not like the coach’s criticism and moved from the starting line-up to the third option, and jumped to the bench in the last meeting with Estrella da Amadora.

Although the scenario seems normal (it was within the preparation and should not be subjected to any disciplinary punishment), the goalkeeper is in an unexpected situation with the drop in the goal hierarchy, which prompts him to think about the possible departure from Luz.
With just over a week before the market closes, it will not be easy to find a solution that satisfies all parties. Clube da Luz has always set €10m as the reference value for the sale.

Manchester United and Ajax were mentioned as possible destinations, but in the meantime, Bruno Fernandes closed the door on this possibility, signing Turkish Altay Bender, 25, from Fenerbahce for seven million euros.

With the potential for a more difficult transaction, a CPO loan might be a viable model, given the short time until market close, but it also depends a lot on the player’s will.

For all intents and purposes, continuity at Luz is not ruled out, not least because the goalkeeper has a contract until 2027. At the moment, Flashodemos has lost space to Samuel Soares and Tropin, but judging by expressions of affection by fans, he still has the credit. To continue his march with an eagle on his chest.
