Dellas: ‘We were expecting some renewals but it didn’t happen – we need 3-4 more players’ – Football – Premier League Stoiximan

Its goals OFI In the new competitive season, select Trajanus Dellas In his statements after the team’s first training session, the Greek coach claimed that he expected some renovations to be made, which did not happen in the end, and claimed that 3-4 players were still needed.

Trajanus Delas’s statements in detail:

To change the tournament format:

“I am also waiting to see if this particular change will happen. If so, I think that is where we have to focus more on fifth place. It is certainly not easy, what matters to me is the work we have to do every day here. Let’s make this group strong, work every day and then I think the year will go well. OFI’s target has to be high. We want to build a good group, you know what they ask for in every game and that is the main thing. We have to put together a good team.”

For the new season’s goals:


“The idea is to build a good group of players and keep them throughout the season. Let’s close the transfer window as soon as possible and let the new season find us as good as possible. This year I want the team to play with balance, to be strong, at least at home. We have to look at every game as a final. We also have to look at the past to learn more about the future. We need to protect our homeland better. Away games are games where you have to get something, not go to play to play.”

For the new shepherd:


“You realise that there are a lot of changes in the competitive and non-competitive part of the team. OFI is a team that is evolving and growing, and I think that is in the interest of the city and the team itself, and the world should be proud of it. It is a team that is constantly evolving.”

For transfers:


“We focused more on the midfield. This is a bit of a difficult period, and the market in general, since the euro is what affects it. However, the transfers that need to be made will be made. All the footballers are here to help. Whether they are foreigners or Greeks, it doesn’t matter. I speak English to everyone. Let’s not divide the group into foreigners and Greeks. Surely a Greek can understand better what OFI represents for Heraklion and the island. Let everyone quickly understand the culture of the people. Let’s put them in the mood.

“I didn’t ask for a specific number of players. We were waiting for some updates to happen and that didn’t happen. There are also some kids we would like to see, kids from the academies who if they show us something we can benefit from. But I think we still need 3-4 players.”

When he wants to close the list:


“We are going through a difficult transfer window and the market is very strange at the moment. We would certainly like to have additional players in midfield by the time we go to Holland, but we have players to support the squad if those players need to come in later. We are moving every day, we are also working, the scouting department to try to find the players we need and I think we will succeed. I have no information yet about any player leaving the current list. I think that apart from the goalkeepers, a good list consists of about 26 players.”
