AEL Limassol confirms failure to reach top six in league

AEL Limassol spokesperson Nikolas Leventis has confirmed that the club will miss the top six for another consecutive season following a loss to APOEL. The team, coached by Hugo Martins, is currently struggling with poor defensive statistics, having conceded 34 goals, a figure surpassed only by three other teams in the league. Despite these results, the club states its focus remains on the upcoming Limassol derby against Apollon and the remaining cup matches, where they hope to secure a European spot. Leventis noted that the squad’s performance and management, rather than just the roster composition, are being evaluated to improve competitiveness for the next season. Financial stability remains a primary goal for the administration, which manages the club's finances independently of the sports department. Furthermore, the club president has canceled his scheduled trip to Saudi Arabia due to recent developments. Players will be assessed individually at the end of the season rather than being criticized mid-campaign.
