SKY CONFIRM: Melbourne City in £4.63m Transfer Talks with Victory for Nikolaos Vergos
Sky Sports can confirm that Melbourne City are deep in transfer negotiations with Melbourne Victory over a sensational £4.63 million move for striker Nikolaos Vergos. The former Greek international, who has been in electric form this season, is now the subject of serious interest from City, who see him as a marquee addition ahead of the new A-League campaign.
Sources close to the deal reveal discussions have accelerated over the past 48 hours, with both clubs optimistic about reaching an agreement. Vergos, 28, joined Victory last season and quickly established himself as one of the league’s top forwards, netting 17 goals across all competitions.
Melbourne City are believed to be preparing a record-breaking contract to lure the forward across the city divide. If completed, this would represent one of the most high-profile intra-league transfers in A-League history. More updates are expected in the coming days.
