Zungu set for big money European move?

The 25-year-old midfielder is currently preparing for the new season with French club Amiens after impressing during his debut season at the club.

Zungu played 26 times for Amiens in Ligue 1 as he helped the club avoid relegation and has reportedly caught the eye of suitors across Europe as he continues to make a name for himself on the continent.

According to reports from Soccer Laduma, one of those suitors is Greek club Olympiacos, who have reportedly submitted a bid of around €7-million (R107m) for the former Mamelodi Sundowns man.

Zungu’s former Vitoria de Guimaraes coach, Pedro Martins, is the current boss at Olympiacos and is apparently keen on convincing the midfielder to join him in Greece. The club will also be hoping that the lure of European football in the form of the Europa League will aid in their attempt to bring Zungu to the club.

Amiens are thought to be keen on keeping the South African, who has become one of their key members, as they look to build on their second season of top-flight football.

Olympiacos could face competition from the likes of Torino in Italy, and Olympique Lyonnais and Monaco in France, who have also shown an interest in the midfielder.
