13 Sep 2015

Greece head coach Matthew Ashill has announced a train-on squad for the October matches against Malta and Spain in European Championship C.

The winners will gain the final place in the 2016 European Qualifiers for the World Cup the following year, alongside Wales, Ireland, Serbia, Russia and Italy.

“We have a totally new plan using just domestic players who will contribute to the growth and development of the sport here,” Ashill explained.

Six clubs are represented in the initial group selected.

“After September’s fixtures here, we may add more players from the teams of the Attica Region or even from the new sides in northern Greece,” Ashill added.
