He always desired to be a goalkeeper. Inwardly perhaps, it was because of his father.\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paokfc.gr\/en\/profiles\/xristos-talixmanidis\/\">Christos Talichmanidis<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0pulled on his gloves at the age of 10 at the <strong>Pavlos Melos<\/strong> academy, and in only his second year there he became the leader of the mixed team of <strong>Macedonian Football League Championship<\/strong>. In <strong>2013<\/strong> he joined <strong>PAOK<\/strong>, apparently to stay.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Talichmanidis<\/strong> is tall and strong, and a player with special talent, characterised by his ability to play his way out of trouble with the ball at his feet. At the same time, he is a player with a strong, but humble personality. As a youngster he was a key member of the <strong>Under-14s MFCA<\/strong> championship-winning side of the <strong>2014-15<\/strong> season, and he played an influential role in the <strong>Under-15s<\/strong> title win, as well as the <strong>Under-17s<\/strong> title success in the <strong>2017-18<\/strong> season. At the age of <strong>17<\/strong> he became a member of <strong>PAOK\u2019s Under-19s<\/strong>, with whom he celebrated two league championships and also enjoyed two extremely interesting seasons playing in the <strong>UEFA Youth League<\/strong>. At the age of <strong>18<\/strong>, he enrolled in the <strong>Department of Accounting and Finance<\/strong> at the <strong>University of Macedonia<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The peak so far came in the summer of <strong>2019<\/strong>, when\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paokfc.gr\/en\/profiles\/xristos-talixmanidis\/\">Talichmanidis<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>took part in the senior side\u2019s pre-season training.
