Squad

A fracture rules Stevan Jovetić out for 91 days

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

Market

Only the photograph left for Panagiotis Panagi

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Panagiotis Panagi will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around AEL the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad

Tempers go at AEL

Luther Singh 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.

Boardroom

Wages eat 88% of everything AEL 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.

The dugout

Ivan Milosavljević gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The dugout

Luther Singh gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Luther Singh is on it.

The dugout

Nemanja Glavčić 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 AEL, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

The Yannick Gomis question follows AEL around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Yannick Gomis’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

The dugout

The manager comes out for Stevan Jovetić

Public backing, and the sort that costs a manager something if it turns out to be wrong. Stevan Jovetić has been told in front of everybody that the shirt is his.

Transfer targets

AEL bid $960.0K for Edi Semedo

The offer went to Aris this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Market

AEL turn down Anorthosis for Kypros Neofytou

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Jimmy

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

Squad

Luther Singh 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 AEL this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

One of our own: Antonis Stylianou joins the AEL first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Antonis Stylianou is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

One of our own: Nicholas Kyriakou joins the AEL first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Nicholas Kyriakou is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

Valentinos Stylianou steps up from the AEL academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Valentinos Stylianou has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Squad

Bassel Jradi has seen what the next man earns

Numbers do not stay secret in a dressing room and never have. He is not asking for more than he is worth; he is asking why somebody beside him is worth more, and at AEL that is a harder question to answer.

Squad

A season on the outside for Fidélis

He trains hard, says the right things and goes home to an empty flat. Nobody at AEL has done anything wrong, which is exactly what makes it so difficult to fix.

In brief
