Kovac & Co. expressed their satisfaction with signing 18-year-old Konstantinos Karetsas, giving him time to develop.

The focus going forward will be on improving defensive stability, with three potential starters unavailable. Kovac concluded on a positive note, reminding the media of the importance of keeping a clean sheet.
