THE Olympic started the hard work ahead of the new season, with the “red and whites” being from yesterday, Monday (15/7), in the Netherlands, where they will carry out the main stage of their preparation until July 27.
Yesterday, we remind you, with the arrival of the team in the Netherlands, the first training took place, with Jose Luis Mendilibar to have 23 footballers at his disposal, while today, Tuesday (16/7), the Ayoub El Kaabi (he is also in the Netherlands since yesterday), who, in fact, trained normally. Of course, the fact that the Moroccan striker is “present” in the preparation of Olympiakos increases the optimism for his positive response to the Piraeus proposal. At the moment, however, he has not responded to the closed two-year contract with a total salary of 5.5 million euros, offered to him by the holder of the Europa Conference League.
In any case, definitive developments are expected very soon, since the player will have a tete-a-tete with Jose Luis Mendilibar, but also with Darko Kovacevic, who is also in the Netherlands.
In terms of training today, the program in the Netherlands consisted of possession play, diamond possession, tempo run (the pace of the run changed between intervals) and finally possession and numerical superiority finishes. It is worth noting that the training took place with… wild autumn weathersince it was cloudy and windy!
