NPFL Updates suggest that the Greek giants are prepared to offer the Super Eagles star a lucrative weekly wage of ₦10,000,000 to secure his services.

Onyemaechi, under contract with Boavista until 2026, has emerged as a prime target for Olympiacos, who are eager to strengthen their defence.

The 25-year-old has scored three goals in 18 matches for the Portuguese side this season, further establishing himself as a standout option for the Greek league heavyweights.

While Boavista are open to negotiations, reports from Portuguese media outlet Ojogo reveal that the club are yet to provide an official response to Olympiacos’ proposal.

The Owerri-born player, who recently scored and provided an assist during Boavista’s clash against Casa Pia, will be hoping to build on this performance to show suitors why they should battle for his signature.
