Apollon Smyrnis was significantly strengthened with the acquisition of the great protagonist of Vouliagmeni, Charalambos Troulos.
In detail, the announcement:
“Another very high-level transfer – after that of international Georgian winger Nika Susiasvili – that will give it even more quality has been completed by the… amphibious “light brigade”. GS Apollon Smyrnis announces the acquisition of the 26-year-old charismatic scorer Charalambos Troulos for the 2023-2024 season!
The regional player born on 08-12-1997 competed for the last three years successfully in NO Vouliagmenis, being, in fact, the main protagonist in this year’s excellent course in the Final 8 of the Champions League by winning 4th place.
This is a player who is very capable in scoring, team-oriented in his game, very fast in swimming and excellent in his defensive duties, who plays on the left side of the perimeter.
He will compose there, together with the top scorer of last year’s A1 (92 goals) Nikola Bogdanovic and Konstantinos Chondrokoukis, a top-quality triple, which raises the level of Apollon.
Babis Troulos scored 56 goals this year in Greece and 34 in the Champions League with NOB’s cap, including 4 in the 11-10 win over Brescia in the Quarter Final of the Final 8 and three in the loss in the Minor Final on penalties (14-13) from Barcelona.
Apollon Smyrnis approached him with a very good offer, which Troulos accepted in combination with the fact that the ambitions of the “light brigade”, which this year won the European Challenger Cup trophy, are constantly on the rise.
“I am very happy to come to Apollo! It is a healthy team, which every year takes upward steps. I come full of appetite for work, so that I can help achieve our goals in the new season” he characteristically stated on the department’s official website, www .apollonwaterpolo.gr.
So, Apollon made the transfer… bang with the acquisition of Babis Troulos, who started his career from AO Palaiou Faliros where he competed successfully from 2008 until 2020. He followed a very successful three years in Vouliagmeni, with Troulos to be one of the protagonists of the Laimos team during this time.
He is an international player with all the national teams, even winning the title of World Champion in 2017 with the Young Men’s National Team in Belgrade, as a teammate of Nikos Gardikas, whom he will find again at Apollon.
Babi, welcome to the Apollo Smyrnis family!
