Georgios Christodoulou (Greek, Modern (1453-);: Γεώργιος Χριστοδούλου; born 20 May 1967) is a Greek former professional footballer who played as forward.
Christodoulou started his football career at Akratitos. On 11 July 1985, as a young footballer unknown to the general football public, Christodoulou was transferred to AEK Athens. He took part in the team's preparation in Sweden and the manager, Jacek Gmoch played him in 6 games. During the following season, the new coach, Todor Veselinović, used him in 2 league matches and in the second half of the season he was loaned to Acharnaikos. Upon his return to AEK in the summer of 1988, the team's new coach, Dušan Bajević seemed to put faith in him, working with him and giving him plenty of chances during the season, with the young striker taking advantage of them by helping the team either as a starter or as a substitute, in winning the championship after 10 years. In fact, his goal at Toumba Stadium against PAOK was one of the most decisive of the season.[1] The following year he also had a very good presence and despite the transfer of Daniel Batista to the club, Bajević distributed playing time to all the strikers he used. On 30 August 1989, he equalized the score in the Super Cup against Panathinaikos, where the match was sent to penalties, which led in AEK winning the title.[2] In the home match against Marseille for the European Cup, Christodoulou won the penalty with which Toni Savevski scored.[3] In the 8–0 triumph at home over Xanthi, he scored a hat-trick including an unforgettable goal with an amazing heel.[4] Afterwards the problems began. He was gradually losing his place in the team, while rumors said that he had serious problems with his off-field life. Eventually, Christodoulou left the team in 1991, having won 1 Championship, 1 Super Cup and 1 League Cup.
He signed for Proodeftiki and later continued playing in Cyprus, but ultimately never returned to a high level.[5]
After the end of his career, Christodoulou stayed away from football. He occupied a portion of the media over some issues he had with justice, but he returned to his normal living with his family in Ano Liosia.[6]
