The latest news of Olympiakouat the competitive level, on the matter of the coach and the priority from the existing roster, conveyed by Kostas Nikolakopoulos to News Bulletin 247.

“In the competition, we are waiting for training to have a better picture of Anigo’s plan for the derby with PAOK. He is not expected to have any surprises and all indications are that he will have the same line-up in the last two matches, with the only change being Doi instead of Ba. If something changes, it is Biel that the Frenchman keeps in the starting line-up or replaces Brusai or Masoura. The return of Paschalakis is important, but after missing a month, Tzolakis will remain who has been doing well“, the team reporter initially reported.

He then underlined: “Olympiacos, regarding the coach, is waiting for the developments with Rembroff. Various names may be heard, he may speak with various coaches, all discussions are if the Ukrainian does not progress. This is not an easy task, since he has an offer from his national team that he cannot resist. It cannot, for various reasons, be in both Ukraine and Olympiakos».

And he concluded by saying:The only case for the roster, regardless of what happens with the coach, is that of Bakabu, who remains free, is coming off a good season and has offers on his hands. His manager is here and discussions are taking place, with the prospect of him signing a new contract. It is an effort that is not so simple, because of the interest from France and Spain. He himself has no desire to go to Arabia. Bakabou, on the other hand, acknowledges that Olympiacos helped him come back after three years in obscurity. This year with Olympiakos he got on top of himself, he likes the team and the country together with his wife. There is optimism, with the two sides in advanced talks through his manager».
