The terraces29 Apr 2030

The mood at Atromitos has turned into something else

Supporters who sing when it goes badly are supporters. Supporters who gather afterwards are a problem, and everybody inside the building knows which of the two this now is.

Match29 Apr 2030

Atromitos sink to position 14

14 points, and a fixture list that is running out. The mathematics are not yet cruel, but they are no longer kind.

Boardroom29 Apr 2030

The silence upstairs is getting loud at Atromitos

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

Market29 Apr 2030

Emiliano Karaj asks to leave Atromitos

“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.

Squad29 Apr 2030

Tempers go at Atromitos

Kings Kangwa 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.

Squad29 Apr 2030

Words at Atromitos training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Juan-José Perea 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.

Squad29 Apr 2030

Nicolás Pérez wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Atromitos can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

The dugout29 Apr 2030

When it matters, Lefteris Lyratzis plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Market29 Apr 2030

Renato Amorim placed on the list

Atromitos have made Renato Amorim available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

Market18 Mar 2030

Miguel Tavares 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 The request is on a desk at Atromitos, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market18 Mar 2030

Josep Cerdà is on his way

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

The dugout18 Mar 2030

Nikos Vlioras says Atromitos went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad18 Mar 2030

Words exchanged at Atromitos

Rok Kidrič 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.

Squad18 Mar 2030

Words at Atromitos training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Juan-José Perea 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 dugout18 Mar 2030

Tasos Tsokanis knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Tasos Tsokanis trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

The dugout18 Mar 2030

No hiding place for Latufe Assoumani

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

Market18 Mar 2030

Miguel Tavares runs his contract down

5 months remain and no agreement is close. Every week without a signature costs Atromitos money.

Renato Amorim keeps the receipts

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

Loan watch25 Feb 2030

Kostas Souvlatzis counts the days

“I watch every Atromitos game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Khazar runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

Boardroom25 Feb 2030

Wages eat 94% of everything Atromitos earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Squad25 Feb 2030

Home is on Nicolás Pérez's mind

“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Atromitos are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

The dugout25 Feb 2030

Seny Dieng has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Atromitos will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Tempers go at Atromitos

Peter Michorl 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.

Squad29 Oct 2029

Juan-José Perea 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.

Match27 Oct 2029

Asteras take the points off Atromitos

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The dugout29 Oct 2029

The manager’s verdict

“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 0‑1 Andreas Papanikolaou left the room before anybody could ask which.

Squad29 Oct 2029

Nicolás Pérez wants to go home

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Atromitos know it.

The dugout29 Oct 2029

The manager makes an example of Kostas Charoupas

“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 dugout29 Oct 2029

Tasos Tsokanis knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Tasos Tsokanis trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Player ratings29 Oct 2029

Michalis Panagidis beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 13. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Squad30 Jul 2029

Steven Zuber breaks a bone — 54 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 54 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Tempers go at Atromitos

Juan-José Perea 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.

Squad30 Jul 2029

The step up is real for Nicolás Pérez

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.

Market30 Jul 2029

Maksim Kličković attracts admirers

The name of Maksim Kličković has come up in conversations Atromitos were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad30 Jul 2029

Peter Michorl 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 targets30 Jul 2029

Door shut on Jesús Vallejo

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

Transfer targets30 Jul 2029

A loan move for Pau Navarro is in the works

Atromitos have made the call to Olympiacos. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

The dugout30 Jul 2029

Seny Dieng has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Atromitos will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Market30 Jul 2029

Atromitos put Giannis Michailidis up for sale

The list is a quiet document with a loud meaning. Giannis Michailidis may talk to anybody who asks, and everybody at the club understands what that means.
