Kostas Eleftherakis Life

Kostas Eleftherakis (born 18 July 1950) is a retired Greek association football midfielder.

He began his career in 1964–65, playing for Beta Ethniki's Fossieras.

In 1968, he joined Panathinaikos.

He appeared for Panathinaikos in the 1971 European Cup Final in Wembley Stadium against Ajax Amsterdam at age 21.

He scored 2 goals in that campaign to advance to the final. Real Madrid and Everton expressed curiosity in buying him following the game.

For Kostas Eleftherakis, Real Madrid will sell an inconceivable (for the time) 35 million drachmas.

Costas Aslanidis (Secretary General of Athletics, who was elected by the Greek military junta of 1967-1974) will remain in the way.

Everton made the same claim in the early 1970s when Billy Bingham, a coach in Greece, made an appointment. He was accepted to play for the World XI. He would be forced to miss six months due to a fallout he suffered in May 1977.

After that, he would never recover his form completely.

He retired from football five years ago, but not before winning another Greek league title with AEK in 1980–81.

He began his playing with Fostiras in the Greek A Division, 308 of which with Panathinaikos, and scored 88 goals. From 1969 to 1977, Eleftherakis appeared on 34 appearances for Greece's national football team.
