AEK's management is aware that a discussion for a contract extension for Pineda until 2029 or 2030 must now take place, although no discussion has occurred yet. Contrary to reports about an imminent extension last January, nothing had happened at the time, according to SPORT24. Pineda was not called for such a discussion then because he was not in a good psychological condition due to a desire to return to Mexico and was confused during a turbulent period for the team. The club avoided opening the subject 2.5 years before his contract expires in the summer of 2027, as such a conversation could have led to a rupture. The timing for talks is approaching, as he will enter the last year of his agreement with AEK next summer.
