Angelos Tsolakis departs Apollon Ladies and criticizes Cyprus Football Association

Angelos Tsolakis, the 57-year-old coach, has officially stepped down from his position at the helm of Apollon Ladies after an 11-month tenure. Tsolakis stated that his departure was a conscious decision, noting that he had initially joined to assist for only a few matches but remained longer to help the team secure all available titles. His exit took place following the conclusion of the Super Cup.

In statements made to SPORT FM 95.0, Tsolakis expressed sharp criticism regarding the current state of women's football in Cyprus. He argued that the Cyprus Football Association (KOP) is failing to implement necessary measures or provide sufficient investment to improve the competitiveness and sustainability of the sport. He emphasized that the federation's lack of support hinders club operations and overall development.

Additionally, Tsolakis commented on the men's team of Apollon, suggesting that poor recruitment choices during the summer necessitate at least four new signings during the upcoming January transfer window.
