Sasha Vyzenkov extended his contract with Olympiacos early on, and on Monday afternoon the deal was formalized through the summer of 2025.
A day after the announcement, the impressive Rojblanco striker sent his own message about his stay via the club’s official website and declared that he was ready and “hungry” for big new successes!
His statements in detail:
“I am very happy to extend my contract with the team. I want to thank the chiefs, Messrs. Panagiotis and George Angelopoulos, my coaches and the people who support me and are not in the spotlight. I mean the physiotherapists and our caretakers everyone who ‘runs’ for the team. Of course I thank all my teammates, but before All in all I would like to thank my family who have always been by my side.When I first came to Olympiacos I never imagined that I would spend five years and have the prospect of staying longer!It is a fact that makes me very happy.It is very good that my team really shows their support.Together “With humility, hard work and with a great thirst for new successes, we will continue to fight for our goals. There will be good days, there will also be difficult days, but the important thing is that we stick together and, as we have done for the past two years, carry on and keep the team at the highest level.”
When asked if he expected this development, and in fact quite early, he replied: “We all have our thoughts, our desires, our dreams … but sure, the fact that they called me so early, when I already had a contract about overcoming”. In the summer of 2024, they practically support me, showing that they feel that I am part of the club and at the same time reward my work and effort. For all these reasons I feel the need to thank you again. It’s all mutual and I’m glad we’re still together.
When asked if he had signed the slogan advising Rojiblanca fans to stay, it sounded so in his ears, he replied: “People always show me in training that they want me to stay in the team. And in unexpected moments and after great successes. To tell the truth, no one expected What happened. Even my closest friends found out from the team announcement! I wouldn’t say it was something of a surprise, I will say it was something both sides really wanted and the time was right to do it. On the initiative of the chiefs, it was done immediately and I think, like me, Olympiacos fans too, We are happy with this development. However, I repeat, the most important thing is to continue working hard so that the team continues to be at the top. Tough matches come and difficult goals that must be overcome. All this we must show perseverance, seriousness and humility.”
The 27-year-old striker is already in his fifth season with Lemani and this is his best! “Apart from my first team, which was Aris and I stayed for five years, at the professional level this is the first time I stayed in one place for a long time. As I said before, my cooperation with Olympiacos began as a challenge, as an experiment, as a new starting point. And it ended up with my family here, my friends here, my colleagues with whom we’ve built strong relationships, but also with the world.So, I’m very happy that everyone, the bosses, the team and the fans are showing that they believe in me and I’ll do everything I can to justify them.Being on a team for so many years shows that you’re dedicated to it. And you do your job well.”
