Champions Liverpool have completed their first signing of the summer with the acquisition of defender Kostantinos Tsimikas from Olympiacos.

Tsimikas has agreed a long-term deal with the Reds after moving for an undisclosed fee.

The 24-year-old left-back, who has been capped three times by Greece, has made 46 Super League appearances for Olympiacos.

Last season he contributed five assists as he helped his side retain the 2019/20 title with a winning margin of 22 points.

"I'm very happy, I'm very proud to be here," Tsimikas, who will wear the No 21 shirt, told the club's official website. "For me, [it's] the biggest club in the world. It’s an honour to be here and I will give my best."
