Marinakis: “What was missing was European joy, I believed first and then everyone followed”

by

The documentary “Olympiacos, the Legend” Dedicated to the two European Piraeus trophies premiered at Mega and started with Vangelis Marinaki Talking about when the… germ of Olympiacos was stuck, and he also referred to the European dream of the team, which he himself believed from the beginning.

Then the powerful man of the “red -white” PAE stressed how important the academy is, giving Greek footballers the opportunity to climb the first team.



In detail what Vangelis Marinakis said:

“When we took over Olympiacos in 2010 I started talking about Europe.

My father, our friends, my family were supporters of Olympiacos. I started supporting Olympiacos when I was 4-5 years old. Then you like it, every week you look forward to seeing the team, see your friends on the pitch and also watch discussions.

Olympiacos has often been a champion, the best team by difference and what was missing was a European joy.

Of course it was me who believed it first and then there was one, two, three, four and then everyone believed in it.

The main reasons I wanted to deal with the team more, one was Europe and the second were the academies. I wanted to see many young Greek footballers to go well. “
