The Kifisia Courier
Squad12 Jul 2027
112 days out for David Simón after a fracture
A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Kifisia will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.
Transfer targets12 Jul 2027
Kifisia agree $670.0K for Vasilis Athanasiou
The clubs have shaken hands with Atromitos; the player has not yet. Personal terms are next, and personal terms are where more deals die than anybody prints.
Squad12 Jul 2027
Aleks Petkov stays put
“The easiest signature of my career.” Aleks Petkov and Kifisia agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Daniel Weiß gets the move he always wanted
Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Daniel Weiß has just signed for Kifisia, and for once the answer mattered.

Kifisia rebuffed over Jeremy Antonisse
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. AEK have kept their man, and Kifisia go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

A falling-out at Kifisia
Giannis Doiranlis and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
Transfer targets12 Jul 2027
A loan move for Gustavo Mancha is in the works
Kifisia 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.
Market12 Jul 2027
Kifisia sign Daniel Weiß, one for the future
Daniel Weiß is 20, and Kifisia have signed him for the player he will be rather than the one he is. The first team can wait; the point of a deal like this is the years it buys.
The dugout12 Jul 2027
Aleks Petkov 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 Aleks Petkov trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.
In brief

- The dugout Rubén Pérez is still being punished for one mistake
