Abdoulie Manneh’s rise from a promising young winger in Gambia to one of Sweden’s most exciting talents has caught the attention of Olympiakos, and the Greek giants are now edging closer to making him their own.
Mjällby, currently leading the Swedish league, have fought hard to keep their squad intact after losing key players earlier this season. With results still going their way, the club has been determined to halt further departures. But the growing interest in Manneh has proven difficult to ignore.
Sources say Olympiakos have put forward an offer exceeding 2 million usd, with negotiations already in their final stage. The 20-year-old, who has previously drawn interest from Wolverhampton, Brighton and FC Cincinnati, would remain with Mjällby until the end of the Allsvenskan season before making the switch.
A deal now appears close, yet the process is not without its challenges.
For now, Mjällby fans will savor every moment he wears their shirt, knowing the next chapter of his journey could take him to one of Europe’s top sides.
