Delegation of KAE PAOK to the Ecumenical Patriarchatetranslated

Against the background of the EuroCup match against Bakhsehir, PAOK is in Istanbul, with its presence in the city including a visit with particular historical and symbolic significance. A delegation of KAE PAOK visited the Ecumenical Patriarchate, honoring the association's ties with Istanbul and its refugee roots. The delegation was attended by the president of KAE PAOK, Ioannis Petmezas, the general manager of the team, Giorgos Tsiaras, the member of the Board of Directors, Evangelos Tsakmakas, as well as the communication manager of KAE, Panagiotis Horozoglou.

The visit to the Fanari has a special meaning for Dikephalos, as its history is inextricably linked with Constantinople. PAOK was founded in 1926 by refugees who settled in Thessaloniki after the Asia Minor Disaster, bringing with them the memories, traditions and cultural heritage of the homeland they left behind.
