Nelson Oliveira reportedly close to AEK Athens move

Nelson Oliveira is reportedly close to a move away from Norwich City according to reports.

Sdna.Gr report that Greek side AEK Athens are interested in a move for the Portuguese forward, and are close to agreeing on a deal to bring Oliveira to the Greek capital.

The 27-year-old spent the second half of last season out on loan at Reading, having been cast out of Daniel Farke’s side during the opening months of the season.

It had been thought that Reading were keen on a permanent deal for Oliveira, but not offer was put in place.

Now, AEK are keen to bring Oliveira to their club, and have offered the striker a three-year deal.

However, the striker is yet to accept any offer, and is keen to think things over before making any decision on his future.

Oliveira’s deal at Norwich expires at the end of the season, meaning that the Canaries are keen to offload the forward.

During his time with City, Oliveira has scored 19 league goals, and appeared in over 65 Championship games for the Canaries.

Oliveira had his best season after he joined the Canaries from Benfica back in 2016, scoring eleven goals as City struggled in the Championship.

However, the forward didn’t have the same spark about him once Daniel Farke was appointed and found himself out of the team entirely going into last season.
