France-Cameroon defender Leroy Abanda of Greek side Volos NFC has been linked with a summer move to Cypriot giants APOEL Nicosia as his future in the Super League 1 remains unresolved.
The 25-year-old left-back, who was born in Le Blanc-Mesnil and stands at 1.80m, is listed with a market value of €450,000 and could be available on a cut-price deal if Volos decide to cash in. With no contract expiry date publicly confirmed, there is already talk in Greece that Abanda could run down his terms and leave as a free agent in a future window if no agreement is reached.
APOEL’s interest, recorded on 6 June 2026 with the likelihood of a deal still rated as “?” on specialist transfer sites, comes after a season in which Abanda has continued to establish himself as a first-team option at Volos, wearing the number 97 shirt and operating primarily as a defender on the left, cutting in on his preferred left foot.
Abanda, who holds both French and Cameroonian nationality, has built his reputation in Greece’s top flight, the Super League 1, with his performances for Volos drawing attention from abroad. Although detailed appearance and goal figures for this season are not disclosed in the data, his regular involvement has helped stabilise Volos in a competitive campaign.
In his most recent outing for Volos, Abanda featured against an unnamed Super League 1 opponent earlier this month, with the match played in June 2026 and ending in a tight scoreline. While he did not register a goal or assist, reports highlighted his defensive discipline down the left flank and his energy in overlapping runs, qualities that are thought to appeal to APOEL as they plan for another title tilt in the Cyprus League.
With no transfer fee yet reported beyond his indicative €450k valuation and the contractual situation unclear, APOEL may view Abanda as a relatively low-risk, high-upside option as they refresh their back line. For the Franco-Cameroonian, a move to Nicosia would represent a step onto the European competition stage and could prove pivotal in shaping the next phase of his career and broader reputation across the continent if the transfer materialises.
