All Activity

2836 season tickets sold on day 1. I can not recall these huge numbers in past years.

I think that Hammarby is tougher at this moment as it is summer and they are second in the Allsvenskan. Anderlecht has no big names going through their roster. Therefore I think we will meet the Swedes as I have a feeling that we will beat Dynamo Kyiv. The ultimate banana skin.

There goes our Europa campaign

All doable but gonna be tough, esp Andserlecht...

If we lose in EL Q2 and demote to the Conference League we will face the loser of Qarabag vs CSKA Sofia in CoL Q3. First leg at home.

For the Europa League it is first a home leg against Hammarby or Anderlecht.

If we are demoted to the Conference League we are seeded and face one of: Losers of pairing HNK Hajduk Split (CRO) - Pafos FC (CYP) Losers of pairing FC St. Gallen 1879 (SUI) - SL Benfica (POR) Losers of pairing Qarabağ FK (AZE) - PFC CSKA Sofia (BUL) Winners of pairing NK Aluminij (SVN) - FC Dinamo City (ALB)

The unseeded in our group for the EL-draw this afternoon: Winners of Pairing 3 Hammarby IF (SWE) - RSC Anderlecht (BEL) Winners of Pairing 4 HNK Hajduk Split (CRO) - Pafos FC (CYP) Jagiellonia Białystok (POL) Winners of Pairing 5 Tromsø IL (NOR) - FC Hradec Králové (CZE)

Um folks we don't need this: https://inpaok.com/909465/protathike-ston-paok-o-choselou/ https://www.transfermarkt.com/joselu/profil/spieler/81999 -edit- also, Bianco seems like he's moving to Modena in Serie B. Did they really offer more than us? I doubt it. Though apparently Fiorentina sold only 50% of his rights.

Lots of match-ups there that could be fun...

These are our possible opponents if we advance past Kyiv : winner of Maccabi vs FC Sherrif winner of Anderlecht vs Hammarby winner of Pafos vs Hajduk Jagiollena loser of Sturm Graz vs Heart of Midlothian loser of Gornik vs Fenerbache winner of Hradec vs Tromso Really just have to hope we don’t get paired with Anderlecht. I don’t think Fener would drop down but they’d be a problem too

The sale of season tickets starts Monday 20th of July. It will be for another last season in Toumba. Well I went in 2023 to say farewell to Toumba in a match against the worms so I am not convinced yet. Especially since there is not even the slightest beginning of making our new stadium. Buyers of season tickets have the opportunity to buy season tickets first for the new "Double Eagle's Nest". Smart marketing to mention that, though it has always been the case that season tickets holders can renew before the sale for the leftovers begin.

Here comes the big move! He is returning to the Premier League, this time to join reigning champions Arsenal. He is a far more mature and developed footballer than when he went to Norwich as a 19 year old. Good luck to the kid, I am sure he is going to go well!

It is not a shame. It is smart. We have more options/players we can field. List make me smile. Just say the names of the first two players of the A list.....

Here is the list for these next games: Λίστα Α Άλι , Μπάμπα , Μπάλντε , Μπαλωμένος, Τάισον , Καμαρά , Ελουστόντο , Γκόμεζ , Γκουγκεσασβίλι , Χατζηδιάκος , Γερεμέγεφ , Κένι , Κωνσταντέλιας , Λύρατζης , Μιχαηλίδης , Μοναστηρλής , Παβλένκα , Πέλκας , Σανταμαρία , Τέιλορ , Θυμιάνης , Τσιφτσής , Τσοπούρογλου, Ζαφείρης , Ζίβκοβιτς Λίστα Β Αρετής, Αβράμπος, Μπαταούλας , Μπελερής, Μπέρδος , Χαλδέζος, Χατσίδης , Ντούνγκα, Καλπάκης, Κοσίδης, Κωττάς , Κούπενος, Λαζαρίδης, Μανασίδης, Ματέρα, Μύθου , Νικολαΐδης, Νικολακούλης, Γρηγόρης-Αλέξανδρος Παπαδόπουλος, Μιχαήλ Παπαδόπουλος, Τσιντσόλης, Βυρσοκινός Mythou and Chatsidis not on list A. For shame.

Can I just say that after a pair of pretty bad intro videos this preseason, this one is kind of a banger?

Matches will be broadcasted by OPEN. Don't know if it is available outside Greece.

Chatzidiakos signed for us. He will wear jersey #4. He is the third player to play for my two favorite clubs (PAOK and AZ). Maurice van Ham and the great Maarten Martens being the other two.

Fixtures: Thursday July 23rd: Dynamo Kyiv - PAOK 20:00 EEST (in Lublin) Thursday July 30th: PAOK - Dynamo Kyiv 20:45 EEST

Probably a good sign for us that they couldn't actually beat a team like Cluj.

We start and finish the regular season against Levadiakos. First MD in the weekend of August 22/23. We probably will start on Sunday August 23rd unless we get double eliminated in Europe. Full schedule: Αναλυτικά το πρόγραμμα του ΠΑΟΚ στο φετινό πρωτάθλημα: 1η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-Λεβαδειακός 2η αγωνιστική Ατρόμητος-ΠΑΟΚ 3η αγωνιστική Παναθηναϊκός-ΠΑΟΚ 4η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-Άρης 5η αγωνιστική Παναιτωλικός-ΠΑΟΚ 6η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-Καλαμάτα 7η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-Ηρακλής 8η αγωνιστική ΟΦΗ-ΠΑΟΚ 9η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-Αστέρας 10η αγωνιστικήΟΣΦΠ-ΠΑΟΚ 11η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-Κηφισιά 12η αγωνιστική ΑΕΚ-ΠΑΟΚ 13η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-Βόλος 14η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-Παναθηναϊκός 15η αγωνιστική Αστέρας-ΠΑΟΚ 16η αγωνιστική Άρης-ΠΑΟΚ 17η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-ΟΣΦΠ 18η αγωνιστική Ηρακλής-ΠΑΟΚ 19η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-Παναιτωλικός 20η αγωνιστική Καλαμάτα-ΠΑΟΚ 21η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-ΑΕΚ 22η αγωνιστική Κηφισιά-ΠΑΟΚ 23η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-Ατρόμητος 24η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-Βόλος 25η αγωνιστική ΠΑΟΚ-ΟΦΗ 26η αγωνιστική Λεβαδειακός-ΠΑΟΚ I see 14 home matches. Probably MD 24 is in Volos as three homegames is not right.

Penalties will decide the winner of Cluj and Kyiv. Edit 1. Cluj already missed two penalties. Edit 2. Dynamo Kyiv advanced. 2-4 on penalties after the second leg ended also in a 0-0 draw. Kedziora did play 77 minutes.

Another rumor, this time for a DM: https://www.transfermarkt.us/nicolas-fonseca/profil/spieler/462070 Like with all of the rumors, he played in La Liga last season (and got relegated) but actually belongs to a Mexican club, Leon. I don't know anything about the player but I'd imagine much depends on how badly he wants to be in Europe vs returning to Uruguay.

I doubt at this point we'd get yet another guy for the back line so we just have to hope one of these dudes rises to the occasion... Still, good that we addressed the gaps there. I think this might be a mild upgrade over last season.

Chatzidiakos coming to Thessaloniki on Thursday, he will sign a 3 year deal. He is a solid player, but I still think we lack a leader in our back 4. I don't think Chatzidiakos is that kind of player, but he is a nice piece of the puzzle. Remains to be seen if Elustondo could be that guy. O Παντελής Χατζηδιάκος αναμένεται στη Θεσσαλονίκη την Πέμπτη (16/7) στις 19:00 για την ολοκλήρωση της μεταγραφής του στον ΠΑΟΚ. https://www.sport24.gr/football/paok-metagrafes-o-xatzidiakos-tin-pempti-sti-thessaloniki-gia-ton-dikefalo/
