Pantelidis out 4 to 6 months after surgery
Pavlos Pantelidis has undergone surgery for a severe fibula fracture and will miss 4 to 6 months (1). The 23-year-old winger sustained the injury during a friendly against Athens Kallithea.
It is a rough blow ahead of the Conference League return leg against Paks. Your team holds a 2–1 lead from the first leg and expects over 20,000 at OAKA, but Pantelidis will not be part of it.
