PAOK Reject €14 Million Stuttgart Offer for Giannis Konstantelias

PAOK have turned down a €14 million offer from Stuttgart for midfielder Giannis Konstantelias. PAOK want to keep the Greek international for now.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Stuttgart‘s offer included €14 million and bonuses for Konstantelias, a key PAOK player. PAOK rejected the bid, wanting about €20 million, including bonuses. Stuttgart saw Konstantelias as a replacement for Enzo Millot.

TALENT ON THE RISE

Konstantelias had a breakthrough season in 2024/25, cementing his place in PAOK’s lineup and catching the attention of European scouts. He became instrumental in PAOK’s attack, contributing with goals and assists as the club excelled domestically. PAOK secured a spot in European competition for the next season. Meanwhile, Stuttgart ended their Bundesliga campaign impressively, finishing in the middle of the Bundesliga table and achieving a German Cup victory. The German club still has a considerable transfer budget and is actively seeking young talent to bolster their squad for a busy European season.

WHAT’S NEXT?

PAOK are working on a new contract for Konstantelias, offering a pay raise. Stuttgart might return with a better offer as they still have funds and have invested in other players like Lorenz Assignon. Stuttgart’s Bundesliga season is starting soon, and they aim to build on last season’s success. Meanwhile, PAOK are preparing for European qualifiers. The situation remains open as both clubs weigh their options in the ongoing transfer window.
