Christos Tzolis joins Norwich from Greek side PAOK for £10m

Norwich City have announced the signing of winger Christos Tzolis from Greek club PAOK for a fee of around £10m.

Tzolis has signed a five-year contract with the Canaries, subject to international clearance, and the 19-year-old will wear the No. 18 shirt for the 2021/22 season.

The initial fee for Tzolis is £8.8m with performance-related add-ons and the total fee with add-ons is just under £10m.

Tzolis excelled last season, registering 16 goals and 10 assists across 46 appearances in all competitions, as PAOK finished as runners-up in the Greek Super League.

He is capped eight times by Greece, helped PAOK to the Greek Cup last term and was also involved in their Europa League campaign.

Tzolis said: “I would like to thank everyone for the very good welcome. I’m very happy to be a part of this team and I hope to see the fans as fast as possible.
