Manu Garcia, a crucial player for Aris and the team's second leading scorer, has been transferred to Kansas City in MLS. His departure has resulted in significant changes within the team structure. The Spanish midfielder was not only a pivotal figure but also the strategist behind the team's attacking plays, coming second to Loren Moron in scoring. With his transition to MLS, there have been considerable internal role adjustments, notably impacting Vladimir Darida, who has moved from a supportive position on the bench to a key role in the midfield alongside Monchu and Jose Cifuentes. This transfer has created a noticeable gap in Aris's midfield lineup, leading coach Marinos Ouzounidis to rely on players with limited playing time and explore potential signings from the free agent market before the transfer window closes.
