The unacceptable behavior of the Belgian Police at the expense of the visiting Greek supporters, which was reported and is already being properly investigated, has never found the support of the local community at any point. Club Brugge fans did not provoke in any way, nor did they attack visiting PAOK fans. For this reason, we must make it clear that Belgian guests are welcome both in Thessaloniki and at Toumba Stadium, which has in recent years built a unique culture of hospitality.

We have ahead of us a match that is a celebration of football, a match that will be a highlight of PAOK’s European history, a match that should be enjoyed both by the fans of both teams who will be lucky enough to be on the field and by the millions of fans who he will be watching on TV all over Europe.

So let’s protect this character of Thursday’s game, without any confrontations with the Belgian fans, without any extreme behavior that will endanger the presence of our fans in our next European games. Exactly because we also want to travel everywhere! Let’s keep this right, because the best is ahead of us!
