Omonoia seeks defensive reinforcements before transfer window closes
Omonoia is actively scouting for a central defender to bolster their squad before the Cypriot transfer window shuts on September 9, 2026. The need for reinforcements arose following the departure of Nikolas Panagiotou, who recently moved to Utrecht, and the exit of Giannis Kousoulos, who has joined Kifisia. Other key departures this season have included players such as Maye and Semedo, impacting the team's depth.
Manager Henning Berg is prioritizing a central defender capable of playing on the left, or alternatively, a left-sided fullback. Ideally, the club aims to acquire a player under the age of 22 who qualifies for the B-list, as the A-list roster is currently at full capacity. The club is restricted from signing additional non-free agents for the A-list unless a spot is vacated, limiting their flexibility. The decision on further recruitment rests with club owner Stavros Papastavrou, who must finalize any potential moves by the upcoming Tuesday deadline.
