A 20year old Greek soccer player, Giorgos
To make matters worse, the club he represents, AEK Athens have also suspended him till the rest of the Greek football season. A statement released by the club on Tuesday read:
“AEK have decided to leave the player out of the squad until the end of the 2012-13 season … thus imposing the worst possible punishment [we can],
“Whether the player will remain at the club beyond this season will be judged in the summer after which time he will, firstly, have been given the opportunity to demonstrate in practice his behaviour was the result of immaturity and, secondly, whether or not his possible reinstatement to the squad does not cause any negative effects within the club.”
On Monday, Katidis asked to be dropped from AEK’s first team and called his actions “totally unacceptable”.
