Greek Super League: Iraklis - Panathinaikos / Cisse - Ninis (INTIME)
Serie A outfit Parma are already looking to improve their squad for 2012, and have reportedly set their sights on Panathinaikos midfielder Sotiris Ninis as a new reinforcement.

According to Tuttomercato, the Italians could offer the 21-year-old a four-year contract worth €750,000 per season.

Negotiations with the Greek club should be straightforward, given that the player has just six months remaining on his current deal.

Ninis was born in Albania, but started his career with Panathinaikos' youth academy and has played over 80 games with the Athens institution.

He was also eligible for the Greece national team due to his parents' heritage, and has earned 18 caps since making his debut in 2008.
