“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 The request is on a desk at AE Kition, and it is not being withdrawn.
Squad24 Aug 2026
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at AE Kition this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Enric Saborit has left for Omonoia in a $570.0K deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.
Market24 Aug 2026
The interest is real enough to have reached print. AE Kition have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Mathías González has left for Paralimni in a $330.0K deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

A season on the outside for Diego Aravena
He trains hard, says the right things and goes home to an empty flat. Nobody at AE Kition has done anything wrong, which is exactly what makes it so difficult to fix.

“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.

Paralimni say no — this time
The offer from Apollon for Adebayo Adeleye 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.

The chase for Mathías González ended with $330.0K changing hands and AE Kition out of reasons to say no. The supporters will judge the fee the only way that matters: on Saturdays.

Markus Kuster 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.

A new face in his position, and Michalis Charalabous suddenly has to win back what he thought he owned. Paralimni have promised nothing — clubs rarely do at this stage.

Anorthosis watched Spyros Risvanis again at the weekend, and this time they did not bother hiding it. Clubs only stop hiding when they want the price to start moving.

AE Kition say no — this time
The offer from Omonoia for Mike van der Hoorn 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.

Mike van der Hoorn 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.

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Chabos Kyriakou and AE Kition agree another 3 years.

“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.

The clock runs on Waldo's contract
36 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Mathías González has his answer from AE Kition; what he does with it is the next window’s story.
