Cyriel Dessers has put his proposed move to Greek side AEK Athens from Scottish side Rangers on hold owing to interest from a top team in Europe, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
His move to AEK Athens was expected to be completed in the last 48 hours with the Greek side already agreeing personal terms with him, and closing in on an agreement for his fee with Rangers, who want €5M for the 30 year old while AEK Athens offered €4M.
Despite the impasse AEK Athens were confident of having the 30 year old available for pre season training which starts next week, but their intentions were pushed back by the camp of Dessers who are studying an interest from Dutch giants Feyenooord.
Sport24 and SDNA say Feyenoord are preparing to wrestle the forward who scored 51 goals in two seasons at the Scottish side from AEK, with a counter offer for him to return to the club where he spent the 2021/22 season on loan from Belgium side Gent.
