Career

society

Papadopoulos learned to play football at his home club Iraklis Thessaloniki . For the 2006/07 season he was taken over to the club's professional team, but was initially only used sporadically. In the following season Papadopoulos became an integral part of the team and completed 20 league games in which he was able to score a goal. He was then committed to the 2008/09 season by the reigning champions Olympiacos . At Olympiakos, however, Papadopoulos could not permanently prevail against the competition in the central midfield. He played only 28 league games in three years (without scoring), which is why he agreed with the club management in the summer of 2011 to prematurely terminate his contract, which was originally dated June 30, 2012. Then Papadopoulos moved abroad and signed a two-year contract on August 8 of the same year with the German second division promoted Dynamo Dresden . Even at Dynamo, he could not fight for a permanent place and completed only 33 league games in two years (without scoring). That is why Papadopoulos returned to his homeland after the end of the contract period and signed a one-year contract with Aris Thessaloniki . In the first half of the 2013/14 season, he was used in 16 league games. For the second half of the 2013/14 season Papadopoulos moved to Poland to KS Cracovia from Krakow , where he signed for two and a half years. In the 2013/14 season he played eleven times for Kraków in the Polish Ekstraklasa and scored two goals. After the season they separated by mutual agreement. For the 2014/15 season Papadopoulos moved to Israel to FC Bnei Sachnin , from where he was also awarded to the club Hapoel Akko . In the following season he played for Hapoel Kfar Saba before moving back to Greece to Veria FC for the 2016/17 season. A year later he went to the Cypriot club Nea Salamis Famagusta . From 2018 to 2109 he was under contract with Iraklis Thessaloniki and then went on to Digenis Akritas Morphou in Cyprus . He stayed there for six months and joined AS Rhodes in January 2020 .

National team

Papadopoulos played a total of 35 international matches for the various junior national teams in his home country, in which he scored eight goals. Among other things, he took part in the 2007 European Championship in Austria with the Greek U-19 team, where he came second with his team. At the European Championships in 2008 in the Czech Republic , Papadopoulos retired with the U-19 national team in fourth place after the preliminary round. With the U-21 selection , he even missed qualifying for the 2011 European Championship in Denmark .

On August 11, 2010 Papadopoulos completed his first and so far only international match for the senior team when he came on as a substitute for Sotirios Kyrgiakos in the 1-0 defeat against Serbia in the second half .
