Official statement of Sporting Director Domenico Teti

Now is not the time to search for blame. It is only the time to show our hearts.

I watch our players every day during the training sessions; the dedication they have and the professionalism they show. I see every day the efforts the coach and his staff put into the training sessions and the passion they have for football.

It’s time to work even harder, one for each other.

This is the time to stay together. This is the time to be proud and face this challenge. Football takes sacrifices and hard work. The team which wants to be champion shows their heart, their spirit and their quality during the most difficult and important moments of the season.

Nobody wins or loses championships in October, in December or even in March. We need to stay together and fight for this Club because at the end of this challenge with the necessary sacrifices, we can show everyone what APOEL means.

Let’s not think about the past, since everything we have done up until this point is done; both the positive and the negative. Another great and fantastic challenge awaits us and if we want to be part and write the history of this Club, we have to put in extraordinary effort to achieve the best we can.

With respect to all, let’s be humble and keep our feet on the ground but always believing in ourselves.
