Career

edit

Born in Eptamyloi, Serres,[1] He made his debut in professional football with OFI Crete in the Alpha Ethniki at age 18 in 1999. That season, he was voted as the Super League's young footballer of the year. Iordanidis had hoped to join an Italian Serie B side in 2003, but OFI sent him on loan to Alpha Ethniki rivals Akratitos F.C. instead.[2] Soon after, OFI cancelled his contract leaving him free to join Kallithea F.C. in January 2004.[3]

Iordanidis had a brief spell in the Cypriot First Division with AEP Paphos F.C. and returned to Greece where he has played in the second and third divisions, most recently signing with Pefki, a club contesting in the Regional Championship, based in the homonymous northern suburb of Athens.
