club for the next two years. He will replace departed Spanish coach Ernesto Valverde.
Jardim, who last year managed Sporting Braga, enjoying a record 15 consecutive wins with the Portuguese club, arrived in Piraeus on Tuesday and agreed a deal.
He is set to return to Greece on Monday and will be officially presented by the Greek champion next week.
