One day before the event at SEF for George Printezisthe glamorous gala organized by Olympiacos in honor of the veteran forward takes place at Asteras Vouliagmenis.
“Pri” in his statements during the event referred to his feelings for her ceremony organized by the Piraeus team in his honor and made one account of his career with the red and whites, stressing that he lived as much as he wanted and even more.
In detail what he said:
When I first started I didn’t expect anything like this. I felt only great joy and honor that I was able to do at least one training session with the team I loved since I was a child. As the years passed, as you grew up and nurtured in a club, it begins and exists in your mind, like a distant dream.
That was the end competitively. A year and a cycle that ended beautifully. Tomorrow will be a very nice move by the KAE and the presidents, whom I thank very much.
I’m not well prepared. Or rather I have prepared myself, but I can’t manage it. Not just the emotional charge. Even though it’s a moment when people look at it and say ‘how lucky you are’ and I’m lucky indeed, because I’m a bit more emotional, it’s going to be a moment I’m going to have a hard time managing. Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow I might see some VIDEO and it will make me even happier and I will really enjoy it then. Because at that time I don’t know if I will enjoy it.
The faces are what make the situations, the daily friction, the successes, the beautiful, but also the bad moments. All this together can compose a very beautiful puzzle for Olympiakos and I am keeping this. Above all, human relationships are what count. Every time we meet it’s like everything goes on automatic. Human relationships, love and respect remain.
I can’t say I’m missing anything. It ended a cycle very nicely, after many years. Too many painful, difficult days, with successes, with defeats. I think I left full from the love of the world and in terms of results, but also in terms of time. I hope I didn’t tire my teammates or anyone.
It is very beautiful to hear the slogan “Giorgos psyhara Olympiakara”. There is also a bond with the world of Olympiakos. I never tried to pretend and show more emotions than what I felt, although what I felt might be more than what I showed.
We have been through too much with Spanoulis. I had said it last year, at his own celebration, when I had been asked if I could isolate a moment. If you single out one moment, it’s like doing an injustice to thousands of others you’ve lived. This is a reality. How many nights in hotels, in locker rooms, in victories, in defeats, after great successes. There are so many emotions that championships and sports offer you, that many times cannot be translated into words. I say “Billy” is my basketball brother because many relationships on the job are built differently than off the court.
I will surely forget many of my teammates from Olympiakos if I take out a piece of paper to list them. I don’t know if it’s because of age. There were also years when many players changed both during Korydallos and after. A 90% I can remember.
