Lyratzis was injured and required surgery, he was meant to be out for 6-8 weeks so from memory that will be mid to late March. He hasn't started training properly yet and is still on a modified running program (or some sort of individual training program) Michalidis played a bunch of games with the B team so theoretically he should be match-fit or at least making the squads. It seems Lucescu doesn't see him as part of his plans for this season. With Nasberg being the back-up to Koulierakis.

Lyratzis re-injured himself in his first game back, and was going to be out for another month I think (so any time now). Michailidis had a much more severe injury and I believe has been getting some minutes with the B team.

This deal is mutually beneficial. We get to upgrade our stadiums at the cost of giving up our rights on hosting World Cup games. The truth is we would not even be in consideration if it wasn't for this offer so you take this deal every day!!

The Saudis are willing to pay for our stadiums in exchange for 3/4 of the tournament being played there
