Ivan Savvides’ statement:
“In the last 13 years, when I have been honored to lead PAOK, I am moving on to keep my promises. Regardless of obstacles, difficulties and failures, and with the sole condition of the unity of PAOK’s large family, we have succeeded most of what we dreamed of and will live in the same way our dreams.
Yesterday’s announcement of the PM, which came out unjustifiably and unknowingly, I recognize that it surprised me, but I leave it to the crisis of hundreds of thousands of members of our family and history.
I never threw water into the grinder of division. The road we have taken has no return, and this course cannot stop. Concentration and the clear relationship with the world, who lives and breathes for PAOK, was, is and will always be my guide in my attempt to make PAOK even greater in the coming years.
I had promised that I would bring joy to Tuba and kept my promise.
I am the one who started with the idea of the new Tuba and I will complete it. In this endeavor, if one wants to join me, his participation is welcome.
That I have said in keeping, this is the way of life for me. And that is why I promoted the idea of constructing the new stadium exclusively in Tuba, because there is PAOK’s heart beats and we continue to move towards realizing this goal. “
