Larentzakis: “Let’s become a team that will fight in every match – Giannis really wanted to be here”

In order for the National team to turn into a fighting team that will fight every match starting from the defense, he emphasized during the departure for Abu Dhabi Giannoulis Larentzakis.

The international guard made it clear that our representative group should always give 100% while he spoke about Giannis Antetokounmpo, saying that he too would like to offer his services to the “blue and white”.

In detail what he said:

“We have been working hard since the start of pre-season and we are going to the World Cup to do our best. The goal is to become a team that will fight in every match, starting from the defense and playing with great energy. In attack we don’t have much individual talent but as a whole we can achieve quite a few things. We should all give 100% to achieve everything we can”.

Asked about the absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo, he answered: “We know he can’t be with us and the conversation ends here. We have spent too much time in this conversation. Believe me, because I also have a personal relationship with him, he really wanted to be here. Unfortunately, in sports, some injuries cannot be avoided. Giannis must continue his recovery. Trust me, if it was at 70-80% it would come. But above all is health. I wish him a speedy recovery. We will try to play for the absent ones as well.”
