Petros Giakoumakis (Greek: Πέτρος Γιακουμάκης; born 3 July 1992) is a Greek professional footballer who currently plays as a forward for Levadiakos in the Greek Superleague. [1]

Career

Born in Crete, Giakoumakis began playing football for Olympiakos Chersonissos and started his professional career after moving to Atsalenios in 2011. During his last season with the club Petros Giakoumakis scored 19 goals in 25 appearances, however his contribution was not enough for Atsalenios to remain in the Football League 2 and were relegated to the Heraklion FCA championships for the first time in 18 years.[2]

His good performances with Atsalenios did not go unnoticed by a number of Superleague clubs, with Panionios and OFI Crete showing interest in signing the young forward for the summer transfer period of 2014.[3] Platanias also invited him for a few-days-long trial in order to be checked out by then-Platanias magager Giannis Christopoulos.[4] OFI Crete was close enough to capture the forward's signature, but negotiations between Atsalenios and OFI bitterly fell through – in the end, Giakoumakis signed a five-year contract for Levadiakos on 1 August 2014.
