Pantelis Konstantinidis (Greek: Παντελής Κωνσταντινίδης; born 16 August 1975) is a Greek former footballer who played as a left winger, could also play as a left back. His quick dribbling in his youth earned the nickname "Svouras" (spinning top). During 2010 Konstantinidis assumed the position of technical director at PAOK, succeeding Zisis Vryzas. He could also play as a defender.[1]

Club career

Konstantinidis began playing football at PAS Florina. In 1993 he was signed by the Greek champions, AEK Athens, He was in the roster of the team, when they won their thrid consecutive championship, but he did not manage to make a single appearance. In the summer of 1994 was loaned to Kavala where he stayed for two seasons. Upon his return to AEK was given at Apollon Athens as an exchange for the transfer of Demis Nikolaidis.[2] At Apollon he spent a succefull two-season spell.

He signed with PAOK in 1998 and stayed there for four years. He topped his game and made himself steady in the starting eleven as a left winger, where he became a fan favourite. In the summer of 2002, due to the club's financial problems he was sold to Panathinaikos, where he played for three years, making over 60 appearances. In 2005 he returned to PAOK in 2005. During his second spell at the club of Thessaloniki, he became one of their captains. In the summer of 2009, Konstantinidis fell out of favor the plans of Fernando Santos and thus he moved to OFI in the Beta Ethniki. After the season's end, in which OFI narrowly failed to achieve promotion to the first division, Konstantinidis decided to retire, at the age of 35.
