Squad2 Nov 2026

76 days out for Fer Pina after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. OFI will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Squad2 Nov 2026

A one-man rearguard from Nikos Christogeorgos

There were 8 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Market2 Nov 2026

Facundo Silva hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what OFI can pretend not to have heard.

Squad2 Nov 2026

A falling-out at OFI

Dimitris Nikolaou and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Thiago Nuss beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 20. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Match31 Oct 2026

A bad afternoon for OFI against AEK

0‑1 to AEK, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Words at OFI training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Lorenzo Dickmann is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

The manager makes an example of Zisis Karachalios

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

The view from the dugout

“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 0‑1 defeat, delivered by Stavros Vrousai to a room that had heard them before.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Fotios Mandalos damages knee ligaments — 18 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 18 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Squad5 Oct 2026

A fracture rules Fer Pina out for 107 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason OFI will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Match3 Oct 2026

No mercy from OFI

Kifisia will want this one forgotten quickly: 3‑0, every duel lost, and a long ride home. OFI were ruthless in the way good sides are ruthless.

Market5 Oct 2026

Facundo Silva asks to leave OFI

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

Ilias Chatzitheodoridis beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 28. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

Kenan Kodro, 33, rolls back the years — 8.81

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.81 at 33, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Squad5 Oct 2026

A falling-out at OFI

Dimitris Nikolaou and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Manuel Kalafatis is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 21 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Match3 Oct 2026

At last: OFI win one

5 matches without a win, and then this, against Kifisia. Relief is a strange noise in a football ground and it was the only noise at the end.

Market10 Aug 2026

OFI say no — this time

The offer from PAOK for Giannis Apostolakis was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

An offer of $4.2M for Andrews Tetteh

OFI have gone to Panathinaikos with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

OFI bid $3.2M for Karol Świderski

The offer went to Panathinaikos this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Panetolikos tell OFI: Alexandru Măţan is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Thiago Nuss signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Thiago Nuss commits to OFI for another 3 years.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at OFI

Dimitris Nikolaou and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad10 Aug 2026

A row about effort at OFI

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Lorenzo Dickmann was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Market10 Aug 2026

One of our own: Lazaros Papadopoulos joins the OFI first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Lazaros Papadopoulos is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market10 Aug 2026

Theodoros Mitroglou steps up from the OFI academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Theodoros Mitroglou has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

In brief
