Lucescu decision by Monday
Razvan Lucescu's future will be resolved by Monday, according to reporter Thodoros Chastas. The PAOK manager's status has been unresolved and the club now faces a definitive timeline. Chastas states the situation will be clarified within days, ending weeks of uncertainty (3). This is the domino that determines everything else this summer.
Ozdoev and Taison hanging in the balance
As long as Lucescu's future remains unclear, Magomed Ozdoev and Taison are stuck in limbo. Both players' contract renewals are directly tied to whether the Romanian stays. If Lucescu leaves, the club will need to reassess whether keeping the two veterans fits the new project. Your midfield spine and attacking leadership are effectively on hold waiting for one answer (1).
