Cyprus coach Angelos Anastasiades called up talented forward Demetris Christofi on Thursday to add options to his attack for European Championship qualifiers against Norway and Denmark.
The 22-year-old Omonia Nicosia player received the call-up after a lengthy recovery from injury.
Anastasiades also recalled former national team goalkeeper Michalis Morfis. The 31-year-old Morfis now plays for second-division club PAEEK Kyrenia after leaving APOEL Nicosia in the offseason.
Cyprus started its Euro 2012 qualifying campaign with a surprising 4-4 away draw against Portugal on Sept. 3. Cyprus' goal tally in that match was a national team record for an away game.
Cyprus plays Norway at home on Oct. 8 and Denmark away on Oct. 12.
