“First of all, I have only good words to say and to express my respect for everything that Alexis Albanos has achieved in recent years, both as head coach and as a member of the technical team. I take my hat off to him and wish him the best of luck in the rest of his career.
He has given so much to Greek handball and I really believe that he will continue to contribute to it. This is no time for big words, the season has just started. The next goals are ahead of us and every game will be a test of who we are as a team and what we are made of.
What I can promise is that we will work hard to be better as a team and we can be stronger if we all move in the same direction:
Management, coaching staff, players, fans. I know where I’m coming from and what lies ahead, but I believe that together we can achieve a lot.”
