PAOK concluded their 100-year anniversary season with disappointment, leaving the future of Razvan Lucescu in limbo at the Toumba stadium.
The team’s loss in the Greek Cup final to OFI in the Pantheon and the subsequent loss of the second playoff spot in the Super League created a heavy atmosphere in the "Two-Headed Beast of the North." In just a few days, two crucial goals were lost, leaving the upcoming season with many questions on the competitive and managerial fronts.
PAOK lost their ticket to the Europa League playoffs and will now have to start from the second qualifying round of the competition. This means the margin for error is significantly reduced, as an early failure would send them to the Conference League qualifiers.
Adding to the difficulty is the fact that the team found themselves locked in a battle for the second position on the League. The Thessalonians led 2-0 against Panathinaikos with goals from Ozdojevic and Pelle, but they failed to hold onto the lead. The "greens" fought back, and the final 2-2 result left PAOK outside their goal.
At Toumba, there is already significant concern about the overall picture of the team during the club’s 100-year anniversary season. PAOK finished the year without a title and with significant losses in their key objectives, which inevitably brings scenarios into question about the future of Razvan Lucescu at the helm.
