AEK Athens FC have signed attacking midfielder Louay Chanko from Swedish champions Malmö FF for an undisclosed fee.
'Great move'
The 25-year-old joins the Greek club, who finished third in the Ethniki Kategoria last season, in the hope of boosting his international chances with Sweden. "It's a great move for me and hopefully I will develop and show everyone what I'm capable of," the 25-year-old said.
European goal
Chanko joined Malmö from Djurgårdens IF in 2003 and had been a regular in the side, but recently fell out of favour. AEK kick off their UEFA Cup campaign in the first round on 15 September.
