Career

society

José Holebas began playing football in 1991 as a striker for the local club FC Südring Aschaffenburg , later he played in the youth teams of FC Kleinwallstadt and FSV Teutonia Obernau . When his girlfriend got pregnant in 2001, he stopped playing football, broke off his apprenticeship and worked as a warehouse worker on shifts. After a twelve month hiatus, he returned to active football. He joined the district league club SV Damm-Aschaffenburg , with whom he rose three times in a row. In 2005 he moved to the Landesliga Nord for FC Viktoria Kahl . There he scored 15 goals in 33 appearances in the 2005/06 season. In this season TSV 1860 Munich became aware of him.

Although the then 22-year-old was actually already too old for the youth concept of the Munich Lions, according to the youth training center manager Ernst Tanner , he was signed for the second team in the summer of 2006. On August 5, 2006, he came to his first game at TSG 1899 Hoffenheim . In the 2006/07 season he made 32 appearances and scored twelve goals. In summer 2007 he was appointed to the professional squad, for which he made his debut in the 2nd Bundesliga on September 21, 2007 in the game against FC St. Pauli . From 2007 to 2009 he was used 43 times in the TSV 1860 second division team. Mostly he was used in the attack or in the attacking midfield, scored three goals and prepared five more. In preparation for the 2009/10 season, Holebas was put on the defensive by coach Ewald Lienen . He has since played in the left full-back position. He was used in 31 games this season, scoring four goals and preparing three more. In addition to his 74 league appearances, Holebas has also played seven DFB Cup games for TSV since 2007 .

For the 2010/11 season Holebas moved to the Greek record champions Olympiacos Piraeus . In his first season he won the Greek championship with Olympiacos Piraeus. In the 2014/15 season he went to AS Roma .

On July 2, 2015, Holebas signed a three-year contract with the newly promoted Premier League , Watford FC .

National team

On October 19, 2011, Holebas expressed his interest in playing for the Greek senior team. In the course of this he had the Latin spelling of his surname changed to “Cholevas”, which better reflects the Greek phonetics (Cho-LE-was). On November 4, 2011 Holebas was nominated by coach Fernando Santos for the international matches against Russia and Romania . He made his national team debut on November 11, 2011 against Russia. A month earlier, Greece had qualified for the 2012 European Football Championship . On May 21, 2012, he was nominated in the preliminary squad of the Greeks and then made it into the final squad . Holebas played in all three group matches - against Poland (1: 1), the Czech Republic (1: 2) and Russia (1: 0). In the quarter-finals, in which Greece were eliminated by Germany (2-4), he was absent due to a yellow card suspension.

In May 2015, national coach Sergio Markarián Holebas deleted from the national team. The reason for this was the behavior of the player from March of the same year. Holebas canceled at short notice before the European Championship qualifier against Hungary and justified this with injury problems, whereupon the Greek association released the player so that he could take it easy. However, Holebas trained and played for his club AS Roma during the same period.

Private

Holebas is the son of a Greek and an Uruguayan . He has a daughter who was born in 2002 and has been married since 2011.
