Turns out Inbom Huang cost a hundred pounds for Olympiakos. A player who was acquired from Seoul for a small fee in July 2022 (who previously made sure to take advantage of the situation in Russia by acquiring his rights from Rubin Kazan) and went on to become one of the top players in the Greek league.

The South Korea international central midfielder was a catalyst in Olympiakos’ game in what wasn’t the best possible season for the Piraeus side and it’s clear the Red and Whites would like to have him with them for years to come .

The 26-year-old midfielder is one of five to six players in the main squad and a key piece of the puzzle Olympiacos hope to complete the next day.

And the reality is that the president of the red-white PAE, Vangelis Marinakis, worked hard on Huang’s case all July, knocking out the player while he was surrounded by teams from Germany. In fact, the total cost of the player’s transfer (the money for his three-year contract, his agents and Seoul) exceeded four million euros.

So the very good season of the Asian midfielder at Olympiakos (39 appearances, 5 goals, 4 assists) and the South Korean national team both at the World Cup in Qatar and in friendlies, coupled with the good name he has made in recent years , it is logical and further to put him in the sights of several European clubs.

The Koreans for Inter, the Italians for Napoli

Just last Tuesday (September 5th) Italian publications (Il Mattimo, Calcionapoli24.it) spoke of a strong interest of the champions Napoli. On Thursday (5/11) there was a new report, this time from South Korea (Korea JoongAng Daily) stating that Inter had sent a scout to Greece last January to monitor Inbom at the Red-Whites’ games.

The German “eyes” and the English

Huang has also been in the spotlight at German clubs for four years and has reportedly had official offers from Werder Bremen, Bochum and Hamburg, with Eintracht Frankfurt and Gladbach all showing interest.

At the same time, the South Korean footballer is represented by one of the largest management companies, which has players in many teams in England and Germany, but also in Italy and Spain.

The wish of Olympiacos

However, everything indicates that it will be a “hot” summer for Huang. From there it remains to be seen how Olympiacos will deal with a possible offer for the footballer’s concession. The Red-Whites have a strong contract with Inbom (until Summer 2025) and certainly any team making an offer must have a heavy wallet.

At the moment it’s not clear what price Olympiacos are asking for the international, but considering they wanted 12m for Mandi Kamara last summer or sold Luka Milivojevic for 15m a couple of years ago, you can understand why that is The amount for Huang may vary.

However, the Red-Whites are keen to continue with the superb central midfielder in the new season and try to return to the titles in domestic competitions while expecting a good run in Europe.
