Arsenal Sign Greek Striker

[Woozie]

The promising Greek U-23 international striker of Heerenveen, Giannis Samaras, has signed a contract with Arsenal, but he will not play for the Gunners until the end of the season as he will stay for another year with the Dutch club.

The young player is one of the biggest hopes of Greek football. Until 2002 was in OFI Crete’s second team, but the following season he was transferred to Heerenveen and netted four times in fifteen games for them.

This season he scored 11 goals.

Samaras has been targeted by many Greek teams, such as Olympiacos, but only Arsenal’s name and bid could satisfy the ambitions of the young striker, who will be the second Greek player in the Gunners’ history, after defender Stathis Tavlaridis, who moved to France last summer.

The overall cost of the Samaras deal is estimated to be some 4.5 million Euros.
