Returns of “loads” of international players ahead of derby in Panathinaikos

by

Nationals end and now derby! This is the only thought in Panathinaikos, after the end of the obligations of the international footballers for its qualifiers Euro 2024.

After Monday’s break, the “greens” returned to Koropi in order to prepare for the match against Faliro, with Fotis Ioannidis reintegrating after the great match he played with the National team, following a de-loading program.

Today at the training center of the “clover” the remaining five internationals will also be found, CherinVerbic, Sporar, Mladenovic and Djuricic, with the former coming…fortunately, then the stunning goal-foul he scored for Slovenia in Belfast against Northern Ireland, which essentially gives his representative group largely the qualification to the Euro.

Everyone in the team knows that the match against Olympiakos is pivotal as, apart from the prestige, there is also the score motivation, since with a victory the “greens” will be at the top. The fact that Panathinaikos wants its first victory in a derby this year, since in the two previous ones against AEK and PAOK at Leoforo, they managed to get a point gives even greater motivation.

On the playing side, Ivan Jovanovic’s plans have not been clarified, since he has been working with six players minus the previous days, while management is also required in the center of the defense after the injury of Eric Palmer-Brown, who will be out for a month.
