Omonia players focus on recovery during international break
During the current international break, Omonia Nicosia players are focusing on injury recovery and physical preparation at the Ilias Poullos training facility. Manager Henning Berg expects several key squad members to regain fitness before the upcoming derby match against APOEL.
Players Kakoullis, Balkovec, and Negu are working to overcome their respective injuries, while Duvern is currently following a specialized unloading program and will undergo further medical evaluation later this week. Concurrently, 27-year-old Dutch midfielder Luke Brouwers is using this period to regain his competitive rhythm and improve his performance level following a previous injury layoff. Berg has emphasized that he expects more from the midfielder given the club's upcoming demanding schedule of domestic and European fixtures.
This training period serves as a critical opportunity for the team to stabilize its roster ahead of the high-stakes match against APOEL. The technical staff continues to monitor the health of the entire squad as the competitive season intensifies in both Cyprus and international competitions.
