Dimitris Limnios

Dimitris Limnios (born 27 May 1998) is a Greek professional footballer who plays as a winger for Dutch Eredivisie club Fortuna Sittard, on loan from Panathinaikos, and the Greece national team.

Club career Early career Born in Volos in 1998, Limnios started his football career with Niki Volos. In 2012, Limnios moved to the Atromitos youth team.

Atromitos In 2014, Limnios was called up to the Atromitos first team. At the age of 16, on 16 October 2014, he made his Superleague Greece debut against Ergotelis at Peristeri Stadium, replacing Andreas Tatos at the 84th minute. He is the third-youngest player to have appeared in the Greek Super League (after Kyriakos Papadopoulos and Kostas Antoniou) and he made his European debut this season against AIK in the Europa League second qualifying round. He is not dissimilar to Kostas Mitroglou in playing style – often swatting aside defenders with his powerful runs. On 4 December 2016, Limnios scored his first goal with the club in a triumphic 2–1 away win against AEL in the Super League Greece. The goal came one minute into first half injury time, and was assisted by Anthony Le Tallec.

On 6 April 2017, Atromitos accepted an offer from PAOK for the signing of the 18-year-old international winger. PAOK have been in negotiations with Atromitos for the 18-year-old youngster who has impressed with his performances since the start of the 2016–17 season. The two clubs reached an agreement in the region of €900,000 (with a 15% future resale rate) and Limnios will join PAOK in the summer transfer window. Limnios is described as one of the best prospects in Greek football and PAOK moved quickly to secure his services.

PAOK On 20 August 2017, Limnios made his debut with the club in a 0–0 away game against Levadiakos. He was replaced by Diego Biseswar in the 62nd minute. On 29 November 2017, he scored his first goal with the club in a 5–0 away Greek Cup win against Aiginiakos. On 8 August 2018, Limnios scored when Léo Matos from the right turned the ball to the penalty shootout and Limnios screamed for the equaliser, in a 3–2 home win game for UEFA Champions League Third qualifying round, 1st leg against Spartak Moskva. On 29 October 2018, Limnios barely 30 seconds after coming on to replace Biseswar, slide from close range after an assist from Léo Jabá to finish a slick move down the left flank, in a 2–0 home win game against rivals Panathinaikos.
