Aris Limassol replaces coach Artem Radkov with Liasos Louka

On February 12, 2026, Aris Limassol announced the departure of head coach Artem Radkov by mutual consent following a period of unsatisfactory results. Club spokesperson Kostas Papadopoulos confirmed the decision during an interview with SPOR FM, describing Radkov as a highly ethical professional who recognized the need for change himself. Liasos Louka, a former player and coach with a two-and-a-half-season history at the club, was appointed as the immediate replacement. Louka was the board's primary choice due to his extensive knowledge of the team and his ability to integrate without an adjustment period. The contract with the Cypriot manager includes a provision for a potential extension based on future performance. The team is now shifting focus toward their upcoming match against Akritas under Louka's leadership. Papadopoulos emphasized that while the whole team shares responsibility for performance, coaching changes are a standard response to missed targets. This marks a return to a 'tested recipe' for the Limassol-based club as they aim to stabilize their season.
