Stelios and Campo to Cut BWFC Ties

Sheffield United boss Bryan Robson thinks that Brammal Lane is the place where Bolton’s Stelios Giannakopoulos can further his career (and maybe Campo too).

So far the two clubs have agreed terms for loaning The Blades the little Greek fella, but Robson is keen to persuade Stelios to sign full-time player.

Here’s what Robbo told The Blades Official Website:

“At the moment we need to convince Stelios that Sheffield United is the right club for him to progress his career.

“He had a hernia operation and it’s a four-week healing process – he had two weeks in Greece and is still over there at the moment.

“I’m trying to get in touch with Stelios to convince him that Sheffield United would be the right move for him.”

Ivan Campo and Stelios Giannakopoulos

The Championship sounds great. If you sign, I’ll sign.

There are further links between Sheffield United and Bolton Wanderers as it has be rumoured that Robson would like to tempt Spanish International, Ivan Campo. The Blades boss neither confirmed nor denied the reports about Campo by saying:

“There’s loads of speculation flying around, everytime I go into an interview, someone else is mentioned and I would rather talk about the games.

“When there is something to report, I will.”

Sounds like he is trying to get Campo, but if he fails (likely) then Robbo will deny that he even tried.

    [...] Stelios only started 11 games last season and spent a lot of time on the bench so his decision came as a slight surprise. There could be more opportunity for him when Bolton start their European Cup campaign. There had been rumours about Campo joining Giannakopoulos at Bramalll Lane but I think it is safe that this will not be the case and that Ivan will remain a Wanderer too. [...]
