Arnaud Kalimuendo is struggling for playing time at Nottingham Forest, and a loan move to Olympiacos could make sense in January. The two clubs share ownership.
Arnaud Kalimuendo could interest Olympiacos as the January transfer window approaches. The 24-year-old French striker isn't getting the playing time he wants at Nottingham Forest, and a loan move is back in the spotlight.
Kalimuendo was acquired from Rennes for around €30m and remains a valuable asset for Nottingham Forest, but that could change if he continues to play a minor role until the winter.
For Olympiacos, a six-month loan could be a solution without a major purchase. The clubs' relationship, due to shared ownership, makes such a move easier in terms of contacts, though it doesn't mean they've already reached an agreement.
Eintracht Frankfurt is also involved. The French forward has a contract with Nottingham until 2030, and his value remains high, so a new loan seems more likely than a permanent transfer.
January is still a long way off, but if Kalimuendo continues to play a bit in England, his name is likely to reappear in Olympiacos' transfer news.
In other news, Diego Campillo's contract with Chivas runs until 2029, according to sources. FOX Sports reports that Olympiacos has not made a formal approach for the defender.
Sportime reported that Olympiacos is evaluating the Red-and-White player's situation and highlighted one detail: his contract with Chivas ends on Dec. 31, 2026.
The interest, however, is still in its early stages. So far, Olympiacos and Chivas have made no offer and have not entered into formal negotiations for Campillo. In addition, sources close to the Mexican club informed OlympiacosRoundtable that Campillo's contract with Chivas extends until 2029.
The Sportime report says the Piraeus club has once again turned its attention to the Mexican market and is interested in Campillo, whom it describes as a potential option to strengthen the defense.
The Mexican, 24, can play mainly as a center back, though his versatility lets him cover other defensive positions, which would have caught attention in Greece.
Another Greek outlet, To10, also reported on Campillo, though it noted that doubts remain in Greece about how serious Olympiacos' interest really is.
Mexican outlet FOX Sports reported that Chivas has not received any formal approach from Olympiacos or any other club to sign the defender.
Now, just over a month after Gonzalez signed, another Chivas player appears to be linked with Olympiacos. For now, there is nothing. The best thing to do is wait until the January transfer window to see whether reports resurface.
