Former Olimpija player Endri Cekici sparks interest in Greece with games in Turkey: In the second part of the season, a battle for the championship title?
When Endri Cekici said goodbye to
Olimpija
decided to move to Turkey, he hit the bull’s-eye. He went to a country where he was well suited and to a league that suited him. The 26-year-old attacking midfielder started out playing for Ankaragucu and is now a member of Konyaspor, where he has played a total of 78 games, scored 10 goals and added 8 assists in Turkey’s top league. Enough for Endri Cekici to attract the interest of a club fighting for the championship in his country.
AEK
is only behind Panathinaikos in the Greek league standings, but the gap between the two clubs is not huge. Andraž Šporar, Adam Gnezda Čerin and Benjamin Verbič are only four points clear of their city rivals, of which Žiga Laci is a member. So the second part of the season is going to be a fierce battle for the trophy, and obviously Endri Cekici could help AEK. At least that’s what the Turkish media claim, while the information coming out of Greece is more restrained. Our Greek sources believe that Cekici is not as close to AEK as reported in Turkey. The player, who scored 18 goals in 48 games for Olimpija, was reportedly offered to AEK, but talks between all parties involved have not yet started, at least for now.
Regardless, Endri Cekici can be satisfied with how his career is developing. And even if he doesn’t go to AEK, the day is probably not far away when he actually takes the next big step in his career.
