Nikolaos Botis will join Pogon Szczecin. According to redinfo.gr, Olympiakos recently offered Nikolaos Botis a contract extension with significantly improved terms, which included a much higher salary than he had previously received. Nikolaos Botis declined the offer from Olympiakos and decided that a transfer to Pogon Szczecin would be a better move for him. He will compete with Valentin Cojocaru at his new club.

Nikolaos Botis, a 22-year-old Greek goalkeeper from Olympiacos, will move to the Ekstraklasa and become a player for Pogoń Szczecin. Pogoń Szczecin will not have to pay a transfer fee for him because Botis will formally be without a club from July. He previously played for Inter Milan. In 2020, the team from Giuseppe Meazza paid 350 thousand euros for him. Botis has 10 caps for the Greece U21 national team. For the 2025/2026 season, he made 7 appearances in Super League 2, 3 in the Super League 2 Play-off, and 2 in the Kypello Elladas. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €350k.
