Aris Limassol prepares for season opener against Apollon

Aris Limassol is finalizing preparations for their upcoming league opening match against Apollon. Spokesman Kostas Papadopoulos confirmed that while the squad is not yet at 100% due to the integration of new players, the team aims to be competitive and secure a victory. The club has adopted a new philosophy focused on young, talented players to rebuild their roster.

Manager Artyom Radkov faces significant roster challenges ahead of the match. Goalkeeper Vana Alves is sidelined for an estimated 4-6 weeks with an injury, though his recovery is progressing well. Additionally, Pazé, Nikolić, and El Alatchi are considered doubtful for the opener due to missed training sessions. Tickets for the match have been released to the public, and the club expects strong support from their fans during this demanding local derby.
