Marked for Dimitris Irodotou

Squad

The step up is real for Panagiotis Markou

At 21 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Squad

Words exchanged at Doxa

Giannis Masouras 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

A late step up for Markos Nino

At 24 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 3 points better than the mark taken at the start of the year, which is the sort of thing that happens to players who take the boring parts of the job seriously.

Transfer targets

Doxa rebuffed over Francis Uzoho

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Omonoia have kept their man, and Doxa go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad

Diyar Shamuzov signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Diyar Shamuzov and Doxa agree another 4 years.

Transfer targets

Doxa try to borrow Afonso Patrão

Pafos have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

The dugout

Theodoros Andronikou knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Doxa, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

Still no ink between Doxa and Alexandros Leonidou

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

Market

Nobody at Doxa has picked up the phone to Dimitris Irodotou

36 months to run and not a word offered. A club that lets the calendar negotiate for it usually ends up losing to the calendar.

In brief

Back issues

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad

A fracture rules Alexandros Kouros out for 19 days

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

Market

Stefanos Mouktaris puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Doxa, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Words exchanged at Doxa

Jordan Robinand 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

A row about effort at Doxa

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

Transfer targets

Doxa ask about Andreas Paraskeva

A loan enquiry to AE Kition: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

Transfer targets

Doxa try to borrow Panagiotis Louka

Nea Salamis have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

The dugout

No hiding place for Giorgos Theodosiou

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Giorgos Theodosiou, and the manager let it.

The dugout

Sotiris Foiniris asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

The dugout

Karim Mekkaoui has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Karim Mekkaoui has written the date down.

In brief
