# Giannis Goumas

Giannis Goumas (Greek: Γιάννης Γκούμας, born 24 May 1975) is a Greek professional football manager and former player, who spent his whole senior career at Panathinaikos.

## Club career

Born on 24 May 1975 in the village of Ampelonas, near Larisa, Goumas is one of the many players to emerge from Panathinaikos F.C.'s youth academy and served the club for 15 years, debuting for the first team in 1994. Playing as a central defender, Goumas was known for his tough tackling, excellent aerial ability and his unusual ability to score goals, often with spectacular shots. Goumas has also scored some very important and impressive goals during his career against Real Madrid, Juventus and Glasgow Rangers in European competitions and the title-deciding goal against rivals Olympiakos, in 2004.
The 34-year-old parted company with Panathinaikos in late June 2009 by mutual consent, ending his career with the Greens after 277 league appearances, and 27 goals. In September, Goumas announced his retirement from professional football.

## International career

Goumas was a regular member of the Greece national team since making his debut in February 1999 against Finland. He was part of the Greece squad that won the UEFA Euro 2004.

## Managerial career

On 30 May 2012, he was announced as the head coach of Glyfada, replacing Murat Seropian.
On 3 December 2014, Goumas took officially the technical leadership of the Greece U19 as announced by the EPO. The historical defeat of our team to 10-0 from Switzerland U19 was the end of Vasilis Tzalokostas from the technical leadership. The veteran ace of Panathinaikos will be responsible for both U18 and U19 national teams. Prior to that Goumas has worked in Skoda Xanthi.
