Double trouble in Techelen
The curtain fell on the main stage of PAOK’s pre-season summer preparations with double training sessions on Friday (14.07) in Techelen.
The day started with some high intensity work. The players worked with a ball through various obstacle courses, then played a friendly match. In the afternoon it was time for tactics. Razvan Lucescu took center stage to show some build-up play and ball circulation pieces to the players, while on the other pitch some of the players worked with Nicolae Constantin on static phases.
Taison stayed out as a precaution, Sastre, Douglas and Filipe Soares followed an individual program, while Lefteris Lyratzis returned in the afternoon with the team.
On Saturday (15.07) PAOK will face Al-Taawoon from Saudi Arabia in a training friendly behind closed doors and without any television broadcast, while on Sunday (16.07) they will close out the main stage of their pre-season preparations with a friendly against Westerlo in Belgium.
