Nikos Vergos sets sights on Australia as he ends his contract with Atromitos

·

Atromitos FC has announced the end of its collaboration with 28-year-old forward Nikos Vergos, one year before the end of their contract.

This decision came after the Greek player expressed a desire to continue his career in Australia, following an offer he received.

Additionally, significant reinforcement in his position by Atromitos (Van Veert, Carlitos, and potentially Bakou) played a role. As is customary, Atromitos did not block Vergos’ path and bid him a warm farewell.

It is worth noting that the Greek striker joined Atromitos last summer, making 35 appearances and scoring six goals.

Last season, with the intervention of Melbourne Victory’s assistant coach Arthur Diles, Vergos was in advanced talks with Melbourne Victory but chose to sign with Atromitos instead.
