Squad

Tempers go at Volos NPS

Núrio 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.

Squad

Angelos Donis out for 26 days

The medical room confirms 26 days on the sidelines for Angelos Donis, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad

Volos NPS are still strangers to each other

9 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.

The dugout

No hiding place for Roger Tamba

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

The dugout

Olamide Shodipo 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 Olamide Shodipo is on it.

Looking ahead

A reunion for Giorgos Mygas

He used to wear the other shirt. On Saturday he plays against Levadiakos in this one, and whatever he says this week about it being just another game will be untrue.

The dugout

Giorgos Charalampoglou 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 Giorgos Charalampoglou trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

The dugout

The manager makes Giorgos Mygas a promise

Nothing in writing and nothing in public: a word about playing time, given face to face at Volos NPS. The team sheets over the next month will show whether it was worth having.

Loan watch

Nikos Grammatikakis’s loan is measured in nothing happening

4 clean sheets from 4 appearances at Anagennisi Karditsa. That is the whole of a goalkeeper’s job done properly, and it is being done a long way from the club that owns him.

Market

Nikos Grammatikakis says no to Egaleo

“I listened, I thought about it, and I am staying. That is the whole story.” The clubs had agreed a fee. Nikos Grammatikakis had not agreed to go, which turned out to be the part that mattered.

Transfer targets

Volos NPS make their move for Giorgos Kyriakopoulos

$2.9M on the table at Panathinaikos. 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

Volos NPS rebuffed over Lorenzo Pirola

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

Boardroom

Volos NPS go back to the board over Giorgos Kyriakopoulos

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $3.1M — a club that wants Giorgos Kyriakopoulos enough to be asked twice.

Squad

Jan Hurtado signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Jan Hurtado and Volos NPS agree another 4 years.

Squad

A falling-out at Volos NPS

Núrio and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Market

Eleftherios Galanopoulos steps up from the Volos NPS academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Eleftherios Galanopoulos 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.

Market

Volos NPS promote Michalis Pelkas from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Michalis Pelkas has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Market

Volos NPS promote Theodoros Pelkas from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Theodoros Pelkas has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.
