Konstantinos Manolas (Greek: Κωνσταντίνος Μανωλάς; born 26 March 1993, Athens, Greece), is a defender currently playing in the Greek Superleague for AEK Athens.

Club career

Konstantinos Manolas began his football career in the youth teams of AEK Athens, and made his professional debut in the 2011-2012 season for Thrasyvoulos. In 2013 he was signed by Levadiakos, and played his first Greek Super League game for the club on 14 April 2013 in a 1-0 home loss against PAOK. After only two appearances he signed for Chania. He played for Chania for two seasons before moving yet again in 2015, this time for Super League club Kerkyra.[1]

In August 2015, Kerkyra was accused, and subsequently found guilty, of committing irregularities in its change of ownership. Its playing license was revoked by Superleague Greece and the club was relegated to Football League, taking the last position on the league table.[2][3] As a result of this relegation, Manolas along with other players, signed for his former club Levadiakos a three-years contract for an undisclosed fee.[4] [5]

On 5 August 2016 the son of AEK's legendary veteran and former manager Stelios Manolas, Konstantinos, signed a three-season contract with the Greek Cup winners for an undisclosed fee.[6]

Personal

He is the son of the former AEK Athens player, Stelios Manolas. His cousin, Kostas, currently plays for Roma.
