Soprano76 Posted August 2, 2019 Posted August 2, 2019 Meli seems to be a cheap-o these past couple of seasons...

He is really focused on opening the new stadium with no debt. Really should have spent some more money last season. Could have tried for second (no one was catching Paok). 1
Thryleon Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 I wouldnt worry about the signings just yet. AEK will plod along for now, until the Gipedo is finished, and then they will splash the cash to get the bums on seats. Its standard operating procedures really.
Alphonse Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 In big news for AEK - Nelson Oliveira looks to be on his way to Wolves in the EPL for 6.5 million - AEK rejected their initial offer of 4.4 million but it's almost certain, Wolves will match the 6.5 asking price. Sergio Araujo will replace the Portuguese forward as AEK look to BUY him this time for 3 million All to be confirmed in coming days 1
Alphonse Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 So, Araujo is now coming on loan, both Wolves and Sporting Lisbon look to be backing away from Oliveira after showing interest so looks like both will be at AEK!!! 1
Alphonse Posted January 31, 2020 Posted January 31, 2020 I'm not sure but I expect he will get back in shape with us, would be something if we see he and Oliveira start together
Soprano76 Posted June 20, 2020 Posted June 20, 2020 Enokbakare officially signed for AEK. Low risk, high reward move IMO.
CincinnatiAek Posted June 20, 2020 Posted June 20, 2020 We shall see. Very talented but a head case from what I have read. Was frequently late for or missed meetings at some of his other stops.
CincinnatiAek Posted July 27, 2020 Posted July 27, 2020 Looks like Barkas to Celtic is official. Hope they can put that money to good use. Will probably need someone other than Tsitontas for the coming season.
Alphonse Posted July 28, 2020 Posted July 28, 2020 Sad to see him go, I just hope this move lines him up for the EPL someday soon, SPL is step down from SLGR
Alphonse Posted August 9, 2020 Posted August 9, 2020 100% true, hoping he signs as he would be a huge signing for us, def rate the guy
CincinnatiAek Posted August 15, 2020 Posted August 15, 2020 After some setbacks they managed to sign Insua. If they can get another forward and center back they will be in good shape to finish third again.
Alphonse Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 I think we can challenge PAOK if we sort out our back line, Insua is a great singing but we really do need another CB and a better RB. Olympiakos is losing some key players and replacing with aged players, they are usually good players for the SL but keep an eye on that
CincinnatiAek Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 I don't see them adding a right back, but I am willing to be surprised. They are trying to move Verde and Oikonomou. I understand with Oikonomou, not so much with Verde as there are no other natural right wingers on the team. I don't love Verde as a player but he is still somewhat young and can improve. I think you have to either renew Livaja soon or move him while there is some interest.
Alphonse Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 I totally agree re Verde, he will be better for another season, hopefully we keep him. I’m confident we keep Livaja
CincinnatiAek Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 Looks like AEK is getting Nassim Hnid, a Tunisian CB. He is coming to Athens tomorrow. It appears there are still some details to work through on the transfer fee.
CincinnatiAek Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 (edited) Team reportedly also turned down 3.5 million for Mantalos from a middle eastern team. Edited August 16, 2020 by CincinnatiAek Typo
CincinnatiAek Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 Hnid is now official. Team is expected to sign another forward in the near future. Would love if they also nabbed another midfielder since Szymanski had surgery and will be out for 2-3 months. 1
CincinnatiAek Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 Looks like Mantalos may be moving to the Emirates. Team needs to use the money to buy some players and fill some gaps. Not optimistic they will make the right choices.
Alphonse Posted August 24, 2020 Posted August 24, 2020 Mantalos looks set for a career ending move to UAE but they money is pretty good for him at 3 million euros over 2 seasons. We have our eyes on Grigoris Kastanos as a replacement... comes from Pescara in the Serie B... Cypriot guy We are also looking at Karim Ansarifard as another striker, used to play for OSFP, was very good with them, hope he is still just as good
CincinnatiAek Posted August 25, 2020 Posted August 25, 2020 Karim Ansarifard official for 3 years. I like that move. Galanopoulos renewed so Kastanos likely out of the picture. Mixed on that one but like to keep an acadmey kid. Hopefully he can stay healthy this season. Mantalos onto UAE for some nice retirement money. Guessing he returns to Aek to finish his career after a few years in the UAE. Guessing they add 2 more players. Would like anothe keeper but don't see that happening.
CincinnatiAek Posted August 26, 2020 Posted August 26, 2020 And Mantalos is apparently staying. Good news as I'm not convinced they would have upgraded the position. Bad news in that the club needs the money.
CincinnatiAek Posted September 19, 2020 Posted September 19, 2020 Team signed Levi Garcia and former Paok player Shakhov. Still need another stopper and someone with some speed in the midfield.
