APOEL club management evaluates front office appointments

As of April 16, 2026, the administration of APOEL, led by Haris Fotiou, is finalizing plans for its technical staff for the upcoming season. A central issue is the role of Fernando Almeida, to whom the club has offered the position of football director. The Brazilian is currently reviewing the proposal, which follows his prior involvement with the club through negotiations related to Brazilian investors and player transfers, such as the deal for Marius Corbu. While there is mutual interest in continuing the collaboration, the administration maintains caution until an official agreement is signed. Additionally, President Haris Fotiou has expressed intentions to hire a technical director with significant experience and professional influence. The management aims to conclude the decision regarding Almeida in the near future to determine if he will remain with the club or if an alternative candidate will be sought. This staffing process is considered a critical part of the team's strategic restructuring for the next year.
