Blackhawk

Vieirinha signed for another season. Salary drop from 450K to 260K.

ViX is only available in the US. DAZN shows the games in Canada.

3:0 loss to Cyprus in a game that the Greek NT was non-existent. What a pathetic display. After this result we are still in 2nd place (and qualification to playoff round), but with a loss to Portugal and Iceland winning their last two games we are going to lose that spot as well.

Lyratzis and Koutsias played in the 3:0 loss to Cyprus for the Greek U21 national team. Lyratzis played the full game and Koutsias as a sub. Just like the rest of the team both were very poor.

Forgot to put a number on it.

NAME: Nicolas QUAGLIATA POSITION: Attacking Midfielder JERSEY NUMBER: BIRTHDAY: 05-Jun-1999 BIRTH PLACE: Montevideo, Uruguay HEIGHT 1.72 m PAOK DEBUT: NT DEBUT: PREVIOUS TEAMS: Montevideo Wanderers, Defensor Sporting CONTRACT ENDS: 30-Jun-2026 SALARY: €

Ricardo is signed for 4 years and has been acquired for the 'B' team. Who knows he might have the same agent as Rafa Soares and is part of the bigger deal. BTW, Soares to sign for 3 years at 500K per season.

Give me Makedonija GjP! Just a short trip from Thessaloniki. Would be also nice to avoid trips to Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan.

TV coverage for the game: Alpha TV, Novasports Prime (Greece), Cytavision Sports 4 (Cyprus), Premier Sports 1 (UK), Optus Sport (Australia), DAZN (Canada), Fubo Sports Network (USA) Greek Soccer TV Schedules: https://www.facebook.com/Greeksoccerontv

There needs to be coordination between the main team and the 'B' team. For starters the 'B' team will need to play the same formation as the main team. If Lucescu plays 4-3-2-1, then Garcia needs to play the same formation. As far as I know Lucescu and Garcia did not even talk to each other last season. Hopefully Boto will change that.

Looks like Schwab will re-sign with PAOK. Possible 1+1 contract extension. Vieirinha will surely renew. Still no answers from Crespo and Biseswar.

One more reason why he should not be renewed.

All four can help if used properly.

Final league game of the season for PAOK women's football team tomorrow at 16:30 EEST. The team has mathematically secured yet another national title, so tomorrow's game will serve as a title fiesta. This the team's 17th league title. Tomorrow's game against Ergotelis will be televised on AC PAOK TV:

Various news, rumors, fake news and wishful thinking by the always trustworthy Greek media: - Quagliata, Nasberg and Kotarski are 99% signed and will be announced soon - looking for no. 2 keeper that will replace Z. Zivkovic - looking for acquisitions on left back, left wing, and a dekari - still pursuing Limnios although Panathinaikos is also interested (could be manager's tricks) - chances of Crespo and Schwab to remain on the team is 50/50 - Biseswar, Sidcley, Mitrita, Akpom are history - will try to unload Taylor, Murg, Jaba through sale or contract termination - will consider sale of Augusto and Mihaj if the price is right

Looks like we are thinking of not renewing Pablo Garcia's contract as a PAOK 'B' team coach.

Looks like Kotarski, the Ajax goalie who is on loan to Gorica will be one of the replacements for Paschalakis. His contract runs until 2023, so we will have to purchase him (between 1.5 - 2 mil).

After the cup final it became official. PAOK will begin the European campaign in 2nd qualifying round of UEFA Europe Conference League. PAOK will be seeded in all the draws all the way to the group stage. You can follow the seedings in ECL in this link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zpt5J7mz3t-53slOYtKzijZrZYCF39aHWd7MvZu-t1U/edit#gid=1919046645 We should not really have any problems in the 2nd and 3rd qualifying rounds, but in the playoff round we could end up playing against Fiorentina or Cologne. Qualifying Round 2 games are scheduled for July 21 and 28.

Koutsias, Talichmanidis, Lyratzis and Tsiggaras called up for the U-21 national team for the two qualifiers against Cyprus and Portugal. Also called for the same games was ex-PAOK player Tzolis.

In the Paschalakis case I think the main stumbling block was that Paschalakis wanted to remain the main goalie on the team, something that the team was not willing to accept. That was apparently reflected in the offer they made him in January, which he declined.

Tzolis and Lyratzis have been called up for the U-21 NT. That's why they are not on the senior team.

Expired contracts: Zivkovic Z., Paschalakis, Varela, Schwab Paschalakis, Varela are certain to depart. PAOK did not make an offer to Paschalakis, because he was demanding over 1 mil back in January. Most likely contract extensions: Vieirinha In negotiations: Crespo, Biseswar Offers made by the team to both, but not accepted by players yet. Crespo apparently packed all his belongings and left for Spain. Loans ending: Sidclay, Akpom, Mitrita, Sastre Reports are we will purchase Sastre

And after today he's not even a PAOK player, so no PAOK players on national team.

Not this year ...

Sidcley, El Kaddouri in Soares, Vieirinha out
