Mitoglou to Sign with Sampdoria

Gerasimos Mitoglou is expected to sign with Sampdoria, according to Italian media reports. The transfer of the Greek defender appears to be a done deal, with the final details being finalized. Mitoglou has been out of AEK's plans since the start of the season and has filed an appeal to terminate his contract, due to a perceived reduction in his role, while AEK also filed a similar appeal. The two parties seem to have found common ground to reach a compromise, allowing Mitoglou to leave as a free agent. The agreement with Sampdoria is expected to be completed soon, with Mitoglou joining the Italian team from January 3rd, as initially reported. La Repubblica first reported the agreement between the two sides, while the 'Sampdorianos' account on X confirmed that only details remain to be finalized for the transfer. Mitoglou has not been playing or training with AEK, which has accelerated the process of his departure.
