Anastasiou OUT, Another Familiar Face Favored

Giannis Anastasiou has left Panaitolikos following the team's 1-0 defeat to OFI in the 18th matchday of the Stoiximan Super League. The team's performance and negative results left no room for optimism regarding a turnaround. The decision to remove Anastasiou appears to be final, as the Panaitolikos administration has already decided on a replacement. Leonidas Vokolos is the frontrunner to take over as the team's head coach. Vokolos has previous experience in Cyprus, where he has worked in the past. His selection as Anastasiou's replacement suggests the administration's desire to bring in a coach with knowledge of Greek football and experience abroad. Developments at Panaitolikos are rapid and the announcement of Vokolos taking over as head coach is expected soon. The team is in a difficult position in the league and a change of coach is considered necessary to give a new impetus.
