Giorgos Giakoumakis, born in Greece on the 9th of December 1994, currently known for his position as a striker for PAOK, boasts an impressive record. Standing 6ft tall (1.85m) and weighing 13st 3lb (84kg), Giakoumakis also dons the number 7 jersey. His current market value sits at approximately £5.9mil, as determined by Transfermarkt.

Bursting onto the football field in July 2012, Giakoumakis joined Platanias in the Greek Football League. Making a modest start, he appeared nine times in league matches during his debut season, with subsequent seasons seeing a steady rise in his performance, culminating in 26 appearances and 11 goals in the 2016-2017 season.

January 2014 saw Giakoumakis hop over to Episkopi, also in the Greek Football League, followed by a return to Platanias the same year in July. After another three seasons with Platanias, he transferred to AEK Athens in the Greek Super League for an undisclosed fee in July 2017.

Throughout his two seasons with AEK Athens, Giakoumakis made a total of 30 first team appearances in league matches. He also had a brief stint with OFI Crete in the Super League while on loan in January 2019 and returned back to AEK Athens later in June 2019.

March 2020 saw him join Gornik Zabrze in the Polish Ekstraklasa on loan, before transferring to VVV-Venlo in the Netherlands' Eerste Divisie later in August 2020.

Then, his career took a turn toward Scotland in August 2021 when he transferred to Celtic with a price tag of around £2.5m. During his tenure, Giakoumakis made a staggering 40 first team appearances, netting a remarkable 19 goals. His performance caught the attention of Atlanta United, who procured him in February 2023 for a sum hovering around £4.3m.

Traversing continents, Giakoumakis played for Atlanta United in the American MLS for a short span, making 38 first team appearances with 22 goals to his credit. In July 2024, Giakoumakis's talent was claimed by Cruz Azul in Mexico's Liga MX for a handsome £7.9m.

In August 2025, Giakoumakis returned to Greek soil, joining PAOK in the Super League on loan. To date, Giakoumakis has graced the field 13 times for PAOK this season, scoring five goals. His performance in the Europa League Qualifiers 2025 - 2026 and Europa League 2025 - 2026 has been commendable, with three goals under his belt from six appearances.

His performance has steadily attested his prowess on the football field, as he keeps ascending in his skill and worth.
