Olympiacos’s elimination by Nijmegen has brought about some developments. Beyond the result itself, there are concerns about the team’s performance, which fell short of expectations in both the first leg and the rematch. No one is off the hook—from the coach to the players and the entire organization.
Discussions are expected between the club’s management, José Luis Medilibar, and the football department’s executives to reach immediate decisions. Vangelis Marinakis has ordered that whatever is necessary be done to strengthen the team, despite the loss of revenue resulting from the team’s failure to qualify for the Champions League group stage.
What is certain is that there will be changes, at least to the roster, with many transfers in the works, as well as several departures.
There are ten days left until the start of the league season, and by then, moves are expected to be made in the playing department, with the aim of improving the team’s performance so that it can achieve its domestic goals and have a strong run in the Europa League.
