Our National Youth Team began its training camp this morning with a practice session at the Livadia Community Stadium.
With many new faces as the team embarks on this fresh start, our national team coach will have the opportunity to draw initial conclusions based on the training sessions and friendly matches.
This coming Thursday, our national team will play a friendly against Olympiacos, followed by a friendly match against Hungary in Budapest on November 16.
Compared to the initial roster, which was announced last Friday, there has been one change: Andreas Hatziefangelou has been ruled out due to injury, and Gabriel Psilogenis has been called up.
“Starting today, we’re beginning a new training cycle, and we certainly have a lot of work ahead of us. We began preparing for the next tournament right after the previous one, but we now have several new players on the team.
Throughout this preparation period, we want to build a core group of players who will form the foundation of our national team for the upcoming qualifiers.
We have two friendly matches ahead of us, and such games always yield useful insights that will help us gradually develop a more comprehensive plan and vision for the future,” said our national team coach Marios Nikolaou on the CFF website.
Pre-season training will conclude in Cyprus this coming Friday, and on Saturday the team will depart for Budapest.
The following players are participating in the training camp:
Nikolaos Koutsoudakis, Argyris Christodoulou, Andreas Georgiou, Panagiotis Aggelis, Zacharias Ioannidis, Gabriel George Ortelli, Kyriakos Kyriakou, Dimitrios Tzoulis, Stavros Panagi, Stefanos Vassiliou, Anastasios Pisias, Ioannis Avramidis, Konstantinos Poursaitidis, Savvas Michos, Michael Theodosiou, Savvas Kontopoulos, Chrysis Evangelou, Andreas Nikolaou, Christos Konstantinidis, Kosmas Ioannou, Christos Loukaidis, Euripides Pepis, Thomas Georgiou, Gabriel Psilogenis.
