Market

Anagennisi Karditsa sell their best player to Asteras

$250.0K is a serious amount of money and it does not play centre-forward. Everybody in the dressing room knows who used to be looked at when it went wrong.

Squad

A fracture rules Paschalis Kassos out for 120 days

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

The terraces

Supporters turn on the $250.0K sale of Pyry Soiri

He is going to Asteras, the club has $250.0K it did not have on Friday, and the phone-ins have already decided how they feel about that. Selling well and selling somebody they loved are not the same skill.

Transfer targets

The paperwork begins on Thodoris Zoulias

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Anagennisi Karditsa have done the hard part with Panionios, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Squad

Tempers go at Anagennisi Karditsa

Darío 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.

Match

Anagennisi Karditsa get the job done against Makedonikos

A 3‑1 win over Makedonikos, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Transfer targets

Kifisia tell Anagennisi Karditsa: Kostas Roukounakis is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Match

Argyris Kampetsis at the heart of a fast Anagennisi Karditsa start

3 goals inside twenty minutes with Argyris Kampetsis in the middle of it, and Makedonikos unable to get near the ball long enough to change anything. Some matches are won before the first drink.

Squad

Words at Anagennisi Karditsa training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Tropi 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.

Transfer targets

Asteras make their move for Mustapha Isah

$4.9M on the table at Kristiansund. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Nikos Papadopoulos

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Market

Fanis Tzandaris 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 Asteras, and it is not being withdrawn.

Transfer targets

Ibai Sanz will not be coming to Asteras

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Athletic Bilbao is saying, and nobody at Asteras is enjoying the guessing.

Market

Asteras sign Pyry Soiri for $250.0K

The paperwork is done: Pyry Soiri joins from Anagennisi Karditsa in a deal worth $250.0K. Now comes the harder part.

Market

Miki Muñoz moves on

Olympiacos pay $890.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Squad

Words exchanged at Asteras

Julián Bartolo 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.

Squad

Alberto Simoni 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 targets

Door shut on Idrissa Guèye

Asteras asked and Udinese 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

Paschalis Kassos breaks a bone — 127 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 127 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market

Thanasis Papadakos asks to leave Anagennisi Karditsa

“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.

Squad

Ricardinho 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 Anagennisi Karditsa this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets

Anagennisi Karditsa rebuffed over Giorgos Giannoutsos

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Iraklis have kept their man, and Anagennisi Karditsa go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Market

Asteras watching Pyry Soiri

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Anagennisi Karditsa have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Transfer targets

Anagennisi Karditsa try to borrow Mateo Peralta

Lanús have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Squad

Tropi has outgrown this division

There is a level at which a footballer stops being tested and starts being contained, and he reached it some time ago. Anagennisi Karditsa know it, and so does everybody who watches him.

Squad

Nikos Golias 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.

Market

No place for Vangelis Andreou in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Vangelis Andreou has his answer from Anagennisi Karditsa; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

Market

AEK come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Asteras did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Boardroom

Asteras go back to the board over Pyry Soiri

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $278.1K — a club that wants Pyry Soiri enough to be asked twice.

Transfer targets

Idrissa Guèye will not be coming to Asteras

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Udinese is saying, and nobody at Asteras is enjoying the guessing.

Transfer targets

Asteras baulk at the price for Matías González

Volos NPS wanted more than $780.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Transfer targets

Asteras make their move for Pyry Soiri

$250.0K on the table at Anagennisi Karditsa. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Transfer targets

Panetolikos tell Asteras: Lazar Kojić is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Market

Business is business: Spyros Angelidis goes

Makedonikos paid $280.0K and Asteras took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Squad

A row about effort at Asteras

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

Looking ahead

Panagiotis Deligiannidis faces his old club

AEL Larisa next, and one man in the Asteras dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.
