Greece: Theodoros Zagorakis, captain of the Euro 2004 champions, elected president of the Federation

Theodoros Zagorakis, born on 27/10/1971, captain of the Greek team that won Euro 2004 in Portugal, was elected president of the Hellenic Football Federation (EPO/HFF) on 27/03/2021.

As the sole candidate, Zagorakis succeeds Evangelos Grammenos, whose mandate had come to an end.

Theodoros Zagorakis (120 caps for Greece between 1994 and 2007) played for PAOK Salonika and AEK Athens, then Leicester City FC (Premier League) and Bologna FC 1909 (Serie A TIM) "before hanging up his boots in his second spell at PAOK in 2007," said UEFA.

President of PAOK from 2007 to 2012, Theodoros Zagorakis was elected in 2014 as a member of the European Parliament (European People's Party/Christian Democrats group). He was re-elected in 2019.
