AEK Larnaca injury update and league preparation

AEK Larnaca is preparing for their upcoming match against Omonia Aradippou, scheduled for October 12, as part of the fifth round of the championship. The team is currently adjusting to the international break, with four players, including Paraskevas, Kyriakou, Pilias, and Trica (U21 Romania), away on national team duties. Head coach Ruben Selles awaits their return to finalize his squad for the crucial fixture.

The team is managing significant injury concerns affecting three key players. Chacon has been ruled out of the next match after medical examinations revealed that a screw from a previous surgical procedure caused fluid accumulation in his leg. Meanwhile, Amin’s status remains uncertain due to a foot injury that carries a high risk of relapse, necessitating constant monitoring. Cabrera also continues to be unavailable, with no immediate return date specified.

Following the international break, AEK aims to maintain its position at the top of the standings. The club acknowledges the psychological and historical significance of the match against Omonia Aradippou, noting past setbacks against the same opponent in both a friendly match and a critical league fixture in March 2025 that impacted their season trajectory.
