“I don’t like to talk about negotiations like this where there are no definitive developments yet, but it is true that AEK are interested in our player,” Monchi told Sport24.gr after the rumours emerged.

It’s reported Ponce will join AEK Athens on loan and the Greek club will pay 50 per cent of his €1.2m per year salary.

There could also be an option to buy for €4-5m.
