Greek football diamonds
Have you ever heard of an able Greek striker? Greece is a country which is not popular for her strikers and attacking midfielders. However, there are scouters who claim that Greece could provide great strikers in football universe if they train them properly. Personally I strongly believe in youngsters who play football in smaller reputation clubs.
In this article I am going to predict some of the coming Greek stars who possibly will help the national soccer team.
1. Eythimis Koulouris
Eythimis Koulouris plays as a striker in Greek fc Atromitos on loan from PAOK. He is scorer with the most goals in Super league at the moment. On his 22 he is a member of U23 Greek team and the main scorer of Atromitos. He failed to make a good impression in Paok the previous year and this is the reason why he was loaned to Peristeriotes. According to my opinion he will return to Paok and become one of his main strikers in the future.
2. Dimitris Limnios
Dimitrios Limnios was Kulouris' teammate when he was playing for PAOK FC. In this season Limnios consists one of the leading midfielders to the club from Thessaloniki. His ability ti dribble and the swift viewing and analysis of the game obligate me to put him in my list. He is a member of U21 Greek squad.
3. Anastasios Donis
Anastasios Donis is the brother of Chistos Donis(Panathinaikos captain) and Giorgos DOnis son(Panathinaikos headcoach). He is playing for the German football club Stuttgart and he is having a great season. He is a fast forward who can be a threat for the opposite goalkeepers. It is a fact that he has scored 4 goals for Stuttgart and all the goals are against Bayern Munich and more specifically Neuer who consider to be the best goalkeeper. Such as the others he is U23 member and he played football for national team.
4.Giorgos Manthatis
Giorgos Manthatis in his 21st years is playng football for Panionios on loan from Olympiakos. The fact that he is not playing for OSFP is something that dissapoint many fans but there is no place for him in the expensive OSFP's roster. Forwards such as Guerrero, Fortounis and Hassan jostled young Manthatis and sent him to Panionios. This is a usual tactic, to sent players in smaller reputation teams only to get the experience and improve their skills. He supports Panionios and he sometimes begins in the main 11. He is one of the U21 main scorers.
5.Lazaros Lampbrou
Lambrou is not a famous player in Greek ears but in the Netherlands Fortuna Sittard fans are exstatic with his abilities. Not having a place in PAOK roster Lambrou was given as a loan to Panionios and after a great season in N.Smyrna he moved to the Netherlands. He had a little problem to become keen in his new club but after some days he started to be effective. At his 21 he is the main forward in Fortuna. It is an evidence that PAOK take the financial resposibility for his injury and thanks to that he quickly recover.
6. Anastasios Chatzigiovannis
Chatzigiovannis who is the co-captain in Panathinaikos could not be out of our list. Panathinaikos has many financial problems , fact that made him to trust his young players and don't allow him to make expensive transfers. Chatzigiovannis and his partners had a massive problem to solve and a really difficult season. Just to know Panathinaikos was the favourite to be regulated. Chatzigiovannis with the proper support and training by Giorgos Donis evolved and at his 21 he is able to keep Panathinaikos in Super League. Panathinaikos is 4th in the league and he is close to capture the ticket for UEFA Europa League.
7. Giannis Mpouzoukis
Chatzigioavannis' teammate Mpouzoukis is the main organiser of Panathinaikos. His great shoot, technique,dribbling and competitive are some of his football traits. One more trait can be added in this list and this one is maturity. In his 20 Mpouzoukis was rumoured to be transferred to Inter. The young midfielder refused the transfer and according to his statement he wants to stay at Panathinaikos , grow up, mature and then he will think of a move to a bigger club. Also many have characterised him as new Ninis(check my article for Ninis) and undoubtedly will become a Greek attraction for the bigger ones.
8 Argyris Kampetsis
In Panthinaikos young and talented roster we must add Argyris Kampetsis. The 19 year old forward may haven't been as effective and helpful as the previous players but he has shown that he is able to support PAO and Greece. Before he move to Panathinaikos he was playing for Dortmund but Dortmund's forwards were better than him so the best solution for the young kid was a cheap transfer to Panathinaikos club who has a lack of players. What is better from a players who is thirsty to play. That trait found Panathinaikos in Kampetsis and in the previous players and this is the reason why from a favourites to regulation become the favourite for a UEFA ticket.
9. Giannis Oikonomidis
Oikonomidis is a 19year old footballer who plays for PAnionios fc. It is true that Panionios has academies that have promote many good Greek players and we belive that Oikonomidis could be one of them. His ability to dribble and his swiftness are his main traits. To be honest I do not believe that he could be evolved such as the others but he could be a notable midfielder.
These are the Greek forward players who I believe that they could evolve and become wonderkids. I did not put players over 24 because I wanted to focus on really young players. Also I must underline that they are all forwards NOT defenders so do not wonder why Retsos, Manolas etc are not in my list.
