Paulo Machado – Toulouse to Olympiakos

Portuguese midfielder Paulo Machado has made the move from Ligue 1 side Toulouse to Greek SuperLeague side Olympiakos. Machado has been an integral part of the French team ever since he joined them from Porto in 2009. His performances have been solid enough to merit multiple call-ups by Paulo Bento to the Seleccao. He has gone on to make four appearances for the team. News coming out of Portugal suggest that the move was worth 2.7 million pounds, which is a steal for an international-caliber midfielder. Machado will be wearing the number 5, and will certainly become an integral part of Leonardo Jardim’s team, as they participate in the Champions League this season.
