According to reports, Olympiakos have made a move to beat Trabzonspor for the signing of Bruno Onyemaechi.

The Super Eagles star has drawn attention from teams in Greece following an impressive season with Boavista.

Despite the team's difficulties in the Primeira Liga, the defender has three goals and one assist in 18 league games.

With twelve points after eighteen games, Boavista sits at the bottom of the Liga Portugal table and might be relegated to the second division the following season.
