Provided that not too much damage was done to the printed circuit board, then a repair might be feasible, although I don't know how many repairers here would be equipped to do the job.

A simpler, cheaper option would be to go for a 'HDMI switch' - there are manual and automatic versions available, with 2, 3, & possibly more inputs, see here.

At £3.19 including postage to Cyprus, you're not going to get a repair done any cheaper!
