AEK has developed a high-risk transfer strategy

Insert directly into the grill. AEK has been late with transfers. I realize that there are a number of objective difficulties not only for AEK, but for all teams. Players, because of the Euro, are in no hurry to make their decision, and Greece is not only in the first, but usually in the last choice of good footballers. It’s all there and I understand it.

But there is something else objective as well. This summer AEK have planned to make several additions, there are moves they have been looking to make since January (not to mention the summer of last year) and therefore had to obtain more advanced transfer data. In at least three locations, and that’s not to say more than that.

AEK has established a transfer policy, which is now starting to become very clear. In most situations, he is looking for reinforcement, and has set very high and therefore very difficult goals as his first choice. This is a hugely risky strategy, especially for a team that has shown that it is very difficult to be flexible in the transfer market when things go wrong for their top target.

For example, AEK identified Bareiro’s case because of his attack and made an inspection. The Argentines say that he also made an offer, which is actually a very strong offer financially. River Plate was also present at Bareiro’s match from the beginning. We are talking about one of the heaviest shirts in the world. It is difficult to compete with it because the issue is understandable in this case, it is not economic.

An excellent player, and River wants him too. But everything shows that the player eventually favored River and would end up with River. AEK has spent time working on this case, and the question is whether another alternative of equal quality has been offered.

Also on the left side of the attack, AEK seems to have singled out the cases of Koitas and Milsson. They both play good football, but it’s obviously difficult. They are the “silver” of their teams and they don’t seem willing to give it up at all. As for Quetta, it seems that Saint-Etienne is also in the Gulf. AEK shows that it fights for both. But time passes. Seems like it would be great if he got one of them. However, the main thing is how you will move, even if things go wrong and since a lot of time will have already been lost. The replacement must be of this quality.

As for the left side of the defence, with the move made with Hadjisavi, it seems that he is waiting for Giannoulis or a situation like Giannoulis. The first question is how long will he wait? But the second and more important question is whether AEK will be able to be prepared to go for a third alternative of the same quality, if something goes wrong.

To explain ourselves so that we are not misunderstood. It’s no wonder AEK moved to Barreiro. For him to play in the national team and for River to want him too, it seems worth it and therefore a move in the right direction. It is also not surprising that AEK Athens lost the transfer battle for the Paraguayan striker from River Plate. Whoever said that has no idea about the sizes. It also works properly and runs in quality cases like Barreiro’s. The question is how willing AEK is to enter into a qualitatively similar case and close it immediately, even if (all) of the barreiros are lost.

AEK is trying to do something very difficult this summer. Now, when he has to go through three qualifying rounds to enter the European Group, he also has to undergo a major restructuring of his roster. Consider looking for two goalkeepers. In practice, more than seven movements should be performed. Good quality moves. What the new owner has conveyed to Almeida and what can be seen from the way AEK is moving in the market, is that all of this will be supported financially.

AEK achieves quality goals. At the same time, difficult goals. He is in very good shape and he should, but this also carries the risk of losing them. They must be prepared to move forward and come up with an alternative solution to the first goal, but just as good. History has so far proven that in this part there has been no flexibility. It was a problem AEK found themselves facing last summer when they missed their first goal as a keeper, and last winter when (through no fault of their own) their first goal as a left-back.

This summer, with tight time frames, Eunice losing due to objective difficulties and with many needs for additions to key players, AEK are called upon to show great flexibility. Especially since he chose the transfer strategy to achieve high goals, which he chose well, and which carries a very big risk.
