APOEL undergoes major structural changes and appoints new sporting director
APOEL has announced a series of strategic moves to restructure the club and improve its financial and sporting performance. The club officially appointed Zisis Vryzas as the new sporting director following his departure from talks with PAOK. The club is also prioritizing its youth academy to better integrate talent into the first team and reduce reliance on expensive foreign contracts. Negotiations for a long-term investment agreement with Savvas Liasis, spanning 40 years, are currently underway, aiming to resolve significant club debts over the next 10-15 years. Regarding the coaching position, the club has held meetings with several candidates, including Nikos Papadopoulos and Ruben Selles, as Pablo Garcia will not have his contract renewed. President Charis Fotiou stated the need for humility and pragmatic management during this transition. Sources indicate the club is seeking a new organizational model to secure future success and competitiveness.
