These include Mihlali Mayambela of Aris Limassol and Luther Singh of AEL Limassol.
Both players enjoyed a strong 2024/25 campaign, with Mayambela reaching 100 appearances for Aris Limassol.
Singh was particularly impressive, registering a career-high of 14 assists in a single season. He also chipped in with two goals, according to Transfermarkt.
Notably, it was Singh’s first season with the Cypriot club, having joined them as a free agent in July 2024.
Transfermarkt indicates that the 27-year-old’s current deal runs until June 2026, although it includes an option to extend for a further year.
Now, according to Cypriot news outlet Protathlima.com, Singh is set to sign a new deal with AEL Limassol in the coming days.
The publication claims that a verbal agreement between the two parties has been in place for some time, and a contract will soon be signed once all formalities are completed.
