Pelkas: “PAOK is always on my mind, the Cup final will be decided in the details”

by

In the mind of Dimitris Pelkas, it is a possible return of to PAOKbut at the moment there is no such talk.

The international midfielder admitted that such a possibility is on his mind, but for now he is looking at his playing obligations until the end of the season.

Details of what Dimitris Pelkas stated in Metropolis

About what they call him in Turkey and what they call him in England, he underlined: “In Turkey they called me Pelkas, he had another name like a great king, in Fener. In Hull they called me by my first name, like Dimis from Dimitris».

On whether he will return to PAOK: “To tell you the truth, until now I have always chosen to be where I am wanted the most. No official proposal has been made, it is still too early. Now we see.

I always have in mind to wear the PAOK jersey. We have accomplished so many things in the past. And I always have this scenario in my mind. I am at a very good age, I feel very good. You speak well. Thank God we are also fine with the business with the hotel in Halkidiki. And dad and mom are there running the business.”

On whether he is under pressure from Giorgos Tsonakas, the team’s translator: “We have a very good relationship with Giorgos and we talk often. It’s like I’ve never left there. And he says different things. We don’t need to go into details right now.

With Razvan, five months ago when I had an injury we had met. And I treated Sakis Kapoula who is sick from PAOK and he is the only one I know that on the day I left PAOK to go to Fener, I told him at the last minute. He was one of the only ones who cried normally. And regarding your question, when I came to Thessaloniki, we had contacts with Loucheskou. We haven’t said anything substantial yet. There is great appreciation. I would like to work with him.”

On whether there is a “new Pelkas” now in PAOK: “I don’t want to enter into a comparison. All I can say is for the young guys who have taken the opportunity and are showing how talented they are. Constantelias, Koulierakis, Lyratzis, Tsoudis, Michaelidis. Due to the position he plays, Konstantelias clicks with me. I had an image of Konstantelias in the past and I said it when I went to the national team: I told them there and to Siopis more specifically: wait and see what kind of player he is. Everyone has had a taste. I had singled him out ever since. We talk with Konstantelias, and at the national road where we were. That I was wrong at his age, I tell him and mention it. In any case, we must move forward.”

For the Greek Cup and if PAOK has a chance to win it: “It’s a final. The good thing is that he won the derby with Aris, but the final will be decided in the details. The slogan we had when I played for PAOK was that you win the final. Now when I get back I will visit the team to talk to the kids. But we don’t know where the final will take place, in which seat I mean. However, even at Hull’s stadium, if the teams want to, they can play the final. The field is in very good condition.

I also want to see when the obligations with the national team will start so that we can prepare accordingly. The truth is that I feel mature. I have been away from Greece for three years. Full of experiences, generally in life you learn more. As for survivor, I couldn’t even stay there for half a day without food. And because of the situation in reality. Two years ago I was there and I found that it was very difficult to stay, especially for those who participate there it is a tough test”.
