We made actions for the first Final 4 involved in the team in 1966, we made a movie about the 1968 epic. We departed the jersey with the name of George American, George Trontzos. The veterans room is named after Nikos Babanikolou.
This administration honors the story. This team had significant gaps. There was no consequence and continuity. Another reason was that there was no connection to history and there were gaps. Another reason was the lack of the stadium. In 100 years its history, AEK has competed in 16 different stadiums, officially. This has created a problem in connecting people with the team. The investments we make are important that we have given the names of the suite in AEK history, as there is a connection of the past with the present and the future. We don’t forget that.
We have completed the infrastructure piece on the pitch and will emphasize the experience of experience, on the look. It was important to complete the infrastructure. We will now invest in viewers’ experience by creating a destination centered on basketball on and off the field. A family destination will be an idea of ​​a unique world. Thanks to Sunel for supporting this effort. The best are coming. “

The renovation of VP suite was not a mere upgrading of the premises, but an act of honor to AEK and the people found on the pitch. The renovated suites bring the legendary name of the team.
The 1968 team is a golden page in Greek sport and is the foundation of recognition in sport. The new suites will be in operation from the new season and will not only be for the games, but also for other events on the pitch. We are proud of our work, albeit symbolically, that will be linked to the legacy of these people. They left a footprint of morality, dedication and greatness. “
