Without Papanikolaou, Olympiakos’ mission to Barcelona will depart today, with the captain of Piraeus suffering from a virus and now extremely doubtful for Game 1 of the series against Barcelona.
Olympiakos continues to suffer and see names written in his diary, just before the start of the series with Barcelona, on Wednesday night (24/4 – 22:00). THE Kostas Papanikolaou remains out of training with a virus and was absent for the second day in a row.
The leader of Piraeus has a fever and for this reason he was not present CHEFin the last training session on Greek soil, as the team departs in the afternoon for Barcelona.
This development, of course, makes Papanikolaou extremely doubtful for Wednesday’s game (24/4), as he will not follow the mission from today and possibly travel one of the next days to Barcelona, if he feels better, to rejoin the team. 12 and to have him at his disposal George Bartzokas.
The developments with Walkup
In training on Monday (22/4), the coach of Olympiakos had seen Thomas Walkup to depart with troubles in the middle. Nevertheless, the guard of the “red and whites” joined part of the program on Tuesday (23/4) and as everything shows, he will probably be ready for the first “battle” with Barcelona. What is certain is that Walkup will travel with the “red and white” delegation to Catalonia.
