He was born in 2008, plays as a defender and defensive midfielder and came to <strong>PAOK<\/strong> in 2022 from <strong>Alexandros Kilkis<\/strong>. He won the championship with the Under-15 team, and with the Under-17 team in the 2023-24 season, although younger, and he is odds on to be crowned a champion this current season with the Under-17 team again, with who he has scored seven times so far (he has also provided two assists). He has been called up to the <strong>Albanian<\/strong> Under-17 squad, and also to the <strong>Greek<\/strong> youth squad&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Georgos Krommydas<\/strong> also signed his first professional contract which runs until 30.06.2027. Born in 2008, he joined <strong>PAOK<\/strong> in 2022 from <strong>Agia Anna Volos<\/strong>, and is a striker with the Under-17 team &#8211; with who he is on a full-speed journey towards winning the championship &#8211; and has already scored six goals and provided seven assists in the <strong>Super League<\/strong>. He was a league winner with the Under-15 team, but also with the Under-17 team last season, where, although he was the youngest, made several appearances, while he is also a <strong>Greek<\/strong> youth international.<\/p>\n<p>The youngest of the group, born in 2009, <strong>Konstantinos Souvlatzis<\/strong>, also signed his first professional contract. The striker, who has been training at <strong>PAOK<\/strong> since 2015 (since he was six years old), also signed a contract running until 30.06.2027. Although younger, in the current 2024-25 season he is playing in the Under-17s and already has five goals and four assists to his name. He is a league winner with the Under-15s, and as it looks, he will also be crowned a champion again this year with the Under-17.
