It is considered certain in the agent market that proposals will be sent to AEK for Stavros Pilios, a 25-year-old Albanian international left-back, either in January or the summer. Scouts who have identified him believe that he has further potential for development and that he can still improve. Pilios joined the club in July 2023 and has a contract until 2030. He is reportedly on the lists of two German teams, while his name is also being considered by scouting departments of teams from Italy, the Netherlands, and recently from England. Pilios has a current market value of 2,500,000 euros.
