Omonia Scrambles for Defensive Reinforcements After Multiple Injuries

Published January 27, 2026, 07:26

Omonia is facing significant problems in its defensive lineup, as Fotis Kitsos suffered a complete ACL tear and meniscus tear, sidelining him for 9-12 months. Kitsos' injury comes just days after that of Agouzoul, who will be out for 2-3 months due to a sesamoid fracture. With the potential departure of Hamas, Omonia will have lost three players who can play on the left side of the defense. The team's administration is looking for reinforcements to fill the gaps that have been created. The January transfer window is coming to an end, and Omonia must act quickly to acquire new players. Several names have already been proposed and are being carefully considered. The team may acquire a player who can play both as a left-back and as a central defender, in order to offer more options to coach Henning Berg. Attention remains focused on Sunday's match against Freedom24 Krasava ENY.
