Pedro Alves wants to strengthen Olympiacos’ scouting department and as reported in Portugal, Luis Guimarães, Moreirense’s sporting director, will take a job with the “red and whites”.
Pedro Alves worked as Braga’s head of scouting for three years (2015-18) before taking up the position of sporting director at Estoril (2018-23).
THE Olympiakos’ new sports director wanted to add another member to the Piraeus team’s scouting department, and as reported in Portugal, this will be Luis Guimaraes.
