Bruno Gaspar gave his first interview as an Apollon player.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 32-year-old Portuguese right-back, with experience in top European leagues, joined our team from the first days of pre-season in the Netherlands. He featured in two friendly matches and now continues training in Kolossi, eagerly waiting to meet Apollon fans at the ALFAMEGA Stadium.<\/p>\n

Bruno, welcome to Apollon! How do you feel wearing the blue and white?<\/strong>
\nHonestly, I feel great. This shirt has history and a strong identity. I\u2019m proud to wear it and excited to defend these colors.<\/p>\n

What convinced you to say \u201cyes\u201d and continue your career in Cyprus with Apollon?<\/strong>
\nI felt it was the right step. From the first moment, I felt the club\u2019s trust and saw a plan that excited me. The club showed real interest, and I could see they have big goals. That energy caught me right away.<\/p>\n

What were your first impressions when you arrived in the Netherlands and met the team up close?<\/strong>
\nThe guys welcomed me warmly, and I immediately felt that it\u2019s a close-knit group. That made my adaptation much easier. My first impressions are very positive. My teammates are passionate, work hard, and I believe together we can achieve important things. The team is competitive and focused; everyone pushes each other, and there\u2019s a strong team spirit. That\u2019s very important.<\/p>\n

How are you experiencing daily life in your new environment and at the club\u2019s training facilities?<\/strong>
\nLife is good and calm. Limassol is beautiful, the weather is perfect, and the club\u2019s facilities are top. I\u2019m enjoying every day so far.<\/p>\n
