AEL Novibet players disciplinary actions and team tensions

AEL Novibet has started the play-out stage with two consecutive defeats, leading to internal disciplinary actions. Players Angelo Sagal and Ivan Masson have been summoned for a hearing on Tuesday, April 14, following a 2-1 loss against Panetolikos at AEL FC Novibet Arena. Sagal received a red card for an off-the-ball incident with Aleksic, while Masson reacted negatively to boos from the stands upon his substitution. Reports indicate that tensions between the players and management began earlier after a 50,000 euro fine was imposed following a loss to Asteras Tripolis. The players reportedly protested the fine, citing delayed salary payments. Coach Savvas Pantelidis has suggested that certain players will be excluded from upcoming matches, with reports indicating both Sagal and Masson are on a 'blacklist' and expected to depart the club. The team is currently preparing for their next match against Atromitos in Peristeri, aiming to secure their first victory in the play-outs.
