Squad

Edgar Ié arrives at the club he grew up with

Every footballer has an answer to the question about his boyhood club, and most of them never get to act on it. Edgar Ié has, at AEL Larisa, and the first month will show what that does to a man.

Market

Thanasis Papageorgiou asks to leave AEL Larisa

“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.

Transfer targets

AEL Larisa bid $260.0K for Christos Belevonis

The offer went to Panetolikos 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.

Squad

Words exchanged at AEL Larisa

Edgar Ié 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.

Squad

Words at AEL Larisa training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Davíð Kristján Ólafsson 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.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Tiago Caballero

AEL Larisa asked and Olimpia said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Player ratings

Pione Sisto beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 19. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Market

Still no ink between AEL Larisa and Edgar Ié

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at AEL Larisa, another week without a signature from Edgar Ié.

Squad

No place for Adryan in the new shape

He is not being dropped. There is simply nowhere in the formation AEL Larisa are playing to put a man who does what he does, which is a harder thing to be told than any team sheet.

Squad

Rafael Barbosa gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Rafael Barbosa has just signed for AEL Larisa, and for once the answer mattered.

Market

Luca Andrada asks to leave AEL Larisa

“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.

Transfer targets

No deal for James Penrice at that price

AEL Larisa offered $2.2M; AEK said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Transfer targets

Bence Lisztes turns down AEL Larisa

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Haladas keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Squad

Davíð Kristján Ólafsson falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Transfer targets

DAC Dunajska Streda tell AEL Larisa: Leandro Filipe 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.

Squad

Words exchanged at AEL Larisa

Renso Pérez 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.

Squad

No place for Rafael Barbosa in the new shape

He is not being dropped. There is simply nowhere in the formation AEL Larisa are playing to put a man who does what he does, which is a harder thing to be told than any team sheet.

Market

Talks stall between AEL Larisa and Rafael Barbosa

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.
