If Trabzonspor won the Turkish league title last season, it was without Gervinho that most of the celebration took place. Indeed, the 35-year-old winger was the victim of a cruciate ligament rupture end of October 2021 and therefore only took part in 13 matches (2 goals scored). No longer entering into the plans of his club, the Ivorian international has decided to change air. He arrived this Friday in Greece, where he will sign for Aris Salonika, 3rd in the last championship and qualified as such for the 2e preliminary round of the Europa League Conference.
For the Elephant, the objective is clear: to find playing time and stay in shape until the CAN scheduled for the country in January-February 2024. The winner of the 2015 edition will sign his lease following having satisfied the traditional visit medical.
After Belgium, France, England, Italy, China and Turkey, it will be the 7e career championship.
