Antonis Siatounis (Αντώνης Σιατούνης; born 26 August 2002) is a Greek professional footballer who plays as a midfielder or defender for club Virtus Entella.
Born in Ilion, a district in west Athens, Greece, Siatounis began his career at Panathinaikos' youth academy in 2011, staying there for eight years.[2] In 2018 he moved to Italy,[3] joining Sampdoria's under-17 team for a fee of €150,000.[4] After playing with the under-18s, in the 2020–21 season Siatounis helped Sampdoria reach the semi-finals with the Primavera (under-19) team, scoring six goals and making seven assists.[5]
Following the expiration of his contract with Sampdoria on 30 June 2021, Siatounis joined Serie B side Monza on a three-year contract.[6] He made his unofficial debut on 15 July, as a substitute in a 14–0 friendly win against Real Vicenza.[7] Siatounis scored five days later, in Monza's second pre-season friendly against Anaune Val di Non, which ended in a 5–0 win.[8]
On 1 November, Siatounis made his official debut for Monza, coming on as a substitute against Alessandria in a 1–0 Serie B win.[9]
On 2 January 2023, Siatounis joined Serie C club Virtus Entella, with Monza holding a buy-back clause.[10]
Siatounis represented Greece at under-17 level between 2018 and 2019, helping his team qualify for the 2019 UEFA European Under-17 Championship, where he played three group-stage games.
A left-footed player, Siatounis transitioned from a winger, to a full-back, to a central midfielder during his youth career at Panathinaikos. While at Sampdoria, he played either as a midfielder (deep-lying playmaker or mezzala) or as a centre-back.[11] At tall, he has a good technique, and is noted for his passing ability, helping build up from the back.
Siatounis is a fan of Greek club Panathinaikos, where his father had played.
