PAOK is interested in acquiring Walid Cheddira as they search for a striker. Italian reports suggest that there could have already been progress if Cheddira had expressed a positive attitude towards moving to Thessaloniki. Although PAOK is maintaining contact with the player, Cheddira seems to prefer staying in Italy and aims to find a team in Serie A or even Serie B. Napoli, Cheddira's current club, does not consider him for the new season after his loan to Espanyol. PAOK is waiting for developments, hoping Cheddira will consider continuing his career in Greece.
