From our football correspondent Uneasy

Boardroom

The silence upstairs is getting loud at Panargiakos

Nobody on the board has said anything against the manager, which is the point — they have stopped saying anything for him either.

Squad

Kyriakos Zisoulis breaks a bone — 29 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 29 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Boardroom

Konstantinos Donis has until the next board meeting

What was said behind closed doors has now been said in front of a microphone. Everybody at Panargiakos can do the arithmetic, including the man it is aimed at.

Market

Giorgos Nalitzis has said yes to Makedonikos

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Panargiakos have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Transfer targets

Christos Sioutas is a medical away from Panargiakos

The deal with Niki Volos is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Squad

Kostas Panagiotou in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Panargiakos this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

A row about effort at Panargiakos

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

Squad

Adrian Persson signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Adrian Persson commits to Panargiakos for another 3 years.

Transfer targets

Panargiakos ask about Mamadou Gning

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

The Sandviken Herald

23 Nov 2026
From our football correspondent Steady

Market

Mohammed Mahammed is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Sandviken is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

The dugout

Mohammed Sadat Abubakari keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Sandviken may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad

Tempers go at Sandviken

Moussa Diallo was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Yabets Yaya 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.

The dugout

No hiding place for Otto Lindell

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

Market

The Karl Bohm talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Sandviken know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Market

The clock does Victor Backman’s negotiating for him

1 months left, and both sides know what that means: every week without a signature, the fee Sandviken could ask drops and the wages Victor Backman can ask rise.

The dugout

Fabian Andersson 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 Fabian Andersson has written the date down.

The dugout

Adrian Persson 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 Sandviken, and both men came out saying it was fine.
