The letter in detail

According to information that has come to our attention, EPO is in advanced contacts with UEFA in order to host a final match of a European competition in Greece which the Federation intends to organize in a newly built stadium.

It is astonishing how the Federation can proceed with such initiatives in secret from Greek football and that no real consultation has taken place between EPO, professional football and the Greek State to select the best candidate that will meet the specifications of such a match and will not expose the country internationally.

We assume that you understand better than anyone that the holding of such an important match as a European Cup final is accompanied by very high demands regarding the stadium that will host the particular game, especially regarding the security conditions both in the facility itself and and in the surrounding areas.

Equally important are the terms of access and attendance at the stadium, the possibility of approaching by means of public transport, etc.

It will be truly unprecedented for the Federation to have “qualified” as an option to host such an important match a stadium which has not been subjected to any control whatsoever to meet the required safety conditions for hosting European matches, nor has it ever hosted a match European event or even qualifying rounds of a European event!! And at the same time top facilities such as “Georgios Karaiskakis” which has been tested and received “excellent” in the top competitions (Olympic Games, Champions League) while at the same time having executives with the necessary expertise in the highest competitions are excluded from the process level.

We draw your attention to the fact that such a process of non-transparent selections, in addition to the risks that it obviously entails for the complete humiliation of the country, will constitute one more illegal action, in the long process of the Federation’s selections that are part of serving the interests of the principals of the EPO administration and the extra-institutional factors that affect football.

We declare to you directly that PAE Olympiacos is completely opposed to such a procedure, we will claim any damages that arise and we reserve all our legal rights.
