AEK Continues to Favor Spanish Coaches

AEK continues to favor coaches from Spain, selecting Javier Perez Rothada as their new technical director. Despite rumors linking Sa Pinto to the role, the club's management reached an agreement with Rothada, making him the ninth Spanish coach in AEK's history. The 43-year-old coach has signed a two-month contract, aiming to prove his worth and compete for a permanent position with the team. Rothada's selection highlights AEK's preference for Spanish coaches, despite the fact that he has not won any trophies so far.
