Aris Thessaloniki has been focused on squad management through player recruitment and roster reduction. Initially, the club sought to rationalize a large 32-player roster by targeting specific positions, including left winger, left back, and center-back. Efforts to offload players included a failed attempt to transfer striker Loren Moron to APOEL due to contract disagreements.

As the transfer window progressed, the club shifted focus toward negotiating for winger Andreas Brouma from Benfica. Concurrently, the team faced squad challenges due to injuries to Stelios Poulianitis, Adam Mokoka, and Giorgos Tanoulis, while Kostas Antetokounmbo returned to training following knee issues.
