Anorthosis Linked with Alessio Da Cruz - Player Once Close to Apollon

Anorthosis is reportedly interested in attacking midfielder Alessio Da Cruz. The 29-year-old footballer, with experience in European leagues, primarily plays as a left winger but can also play as an attacking midfielder or center forward. He currently plays for Athletic Club Brazil, having scored 3 goals in 13 appearances. Last season, he played in the Eredivisie with Fortuna Sittard, where he had 4 goals and 1 assist in 18 appearances. Da Cruz has played for several European clubs, such as FC Twente, Parma, and Mechelen, and has also represented the national team of Cape Verde. Sofronis Avgousti had expressed strong interest in the player last summer, with Apollon being close to signing him. However, the transfer did not result in an agreement.
