Having decided against bringing in former star Jerome Boateng to help shore up the central defensive ranks, FC Bayern München are – according to Florian Plettenberg of Sky Germany – still considering bringing a veteran free-agent defender in on a free. Plettenberg reports that former Werder Bremen and Borussia Dortmund center back is under consideration.
The 25-year-old 90-times-capped Greek international has been without a club since his contract with Olympiacos Piraeus lapsed over the summer. Plettenberg claims that Sokratis – as he is colloquially known – is keen to join the German record champions as has rejected concrete interest from Real Betis Balompié in order to potentially sign with the FCB.
