Tasos Bakasetas gains form at APOEL

Tasos Bakasetas, the 33-year-old captain of the Greek national team, has established himself as a key player for APOEL following his transfer during the final days of the summer window. Initially struggling due to a lack of pre-season preparation upon his arrival in September, Bakasetas has significantly improved his performance in recent matches. Across seven appearances, he has recorded five goals and one assist, proving his value as a creative force and a reliable presence in the 'number 10' position.

The recent surge in form, which includes four goals in the last three games against Omonia 29th of May, Omonia Aradippou, and Aris, has led to his recall to the Greek national team by coach Ivan Jovanovic. Reports suggest that Jovanovic may consider utilizing him as an interior midfielder, especially if Petros Mantalos or other designated options are unavailable for upcoming fixtures.

Following successful efforts by Zisis Vryzas and Nikos Papadopoulos to secure his transfer, the player's development is being closely watched as he continues to integrate into the team's tactical framework. APOEL officials expect his continued contribution to be critical for the remainder of the season as he maintains his high level of fitness.
