It was not certain where the defender's next step would be, with Zamalek claiming to have signed him as well as the champions of Hungary coming close to a contract. Amir chose to keep his European ambitions alive with a somewhat strange move to Cyprus.

Amir terminated his contract at Al-Shabab of Saudi Arabia by mutual consent, and signed for six months in Cyprus with the option of renewing at the end of the season.

He participated in the starting eleven of his new club for the first time and played the full game earlier this week.

Azmi played a defensive-midfield role in the first half, and returned to the his usual centre-back position after the interval.

He had a good debut, and Anorthusis lifted their total to seven points, thus occupying the Group and creeping towards a place in the finals of teh championship.


Win Anorthusis lifting its total to seven points to occupy the top of the Group alone is close to qualifying for the finals of the championship.

Top Club:

In Cyprus, Anorthusis are unrivalled, having gone 19 consecutive games in the league and cup without a defeat.

They occupy the top of the Cypriot League with 38 points, a difference of ten points from Larnaca who are second.
