[edit] Rivalries
PAOK's main foes are the teams of the Greek capital Olympiacos, Panathinaikos, and AEK and the other Thessaloniki teams Aris and Iraklis. Aris is the oldest and eternal rival of PAOK, both on the local and national level, while the derby against Olympiacos is the fiercest, representing more than any other the animosity between Athens and Thessaloniki. The rivalry started in the 1960s when Olympiacos tried to buy Giorgos Koudas, one of the best players of his time, from PAOK, through direct negotiations with the player.
