Kougias: “I’m delivering an AEL protagonist”

With formalities now remaining, Achilleas Davelis will formally take over the majority package of AEL from Alexis Kouya, with the Crimson’s current owner saying in his statements that he is delivering a team to play a leading role.

What he said in detail:

“It is a historic day for AEL and I explain that until the last moment I was ready to retire and why I have been associated with AEL during these years and why I have created an excellent team that did not win because of the dirty background alone has championship this year and why I was particularly connected with Greek children who now make up 99% of this group.

I am handing over to the Daveli family a Greek team that has no other, with such talented footballers and extraordinary characters, and most importantly, 16 footballers from Larisa. A list of this kind has not appeared since the first cup and championship era.

What finally broke my resistance was the agonizing effort of Achilleas Davelis, who did not fail me. The moment I decided to withdraw my shares and not transfer them, it was as if God directed the movements, communicating with me and forcing me to transfer them to Him.

So I saw an unexpected love for this special team from a person I hadn’t imagined in all the years I was in Larissa existing in the city. Seven years in Larissa, he was the first to knock on the door, not just to buy, but to help AEL.

I haven’t had a single sign of Larissa for seven years, never a sponsorship, and to give you an idea of ​​how lonely I felt, there wasn’t a single person who sat at the table with me to discuss the future.

The development with the Davelis family was unexpected as my contact with Achilleas Davelis came about for other reasons, when he had done me the honor of inviting me to the 21admedia presentation it was essentially with Mr. Giannis Davelis.

I never expected that there is a family with such loving brothers and another scientist who impresses me with his humility and quality.

So I want to tell you that I’m completely satisfied because I’m delivering an AEL protagonist with first-year promotion, five years in Super League 1, who was a victim of the background last year. You’ve seen teams that competed with us get disbanded.

During this time I have found two purebred Larissaians who, although they have achieved everything in their lives, John with his modesty and Achilles as a wild horse that is difficult to tame, which does not interest them in personal promotion, but within the group, around their fellow citizens to make happy”.
