Club career[]

Youth career[]

Born in Ilion, a district in west Athens, Greece, Siatounis began his career at Panathinaikos' youth academy in 2011, staying there for eight years.[1] In 2018 he moved to Italy,[1][2] joining Sampdoria's under-17 team for a fee of €150,000.[3] After playing with the under-18s, in the 2020–21 season Siatounis helped Sampdoria reach the semi-finals with the Primavera (under-19) team,[2] scoring six goals and making seven assists.[4]

Monza[]

Following the expiration of his contract with Sampdoria on 30 June 2021,[2] Siatounis joined Serie B side Monza on a three-year contract.[5] He made his unofficial debut on 15 July, as a substitute in a 14–0 friendly win against Real Vicenza.[6] Siatounis scored five days later, in Monza's second pre-season friendly against Anaune Val di Non, which ended in a 5–0 win.[7]

On 1 November, Siatounis made his official debut for Monza, coming on as a substitute against Alessandria in a 1–0 Serie B win.[8]

International career[]

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.[9]

Style of play[]

A left-footed player, Siatounis transitioned from a winger, to a full-back, to a central midfielder during his youth career at Panathinaikos.[2] While at Sampdoria, he played either as a midfielder (deep-lying playmaker or mezzala) or as a centre-back.[1][10] At 1.83 m (6 ft 0 in) tall, he has a good technique, and is noted for his passing ability, helping build up from the back.[1]

Personal life[]

Siatounis is a fan of Greek club Panathinaikos, where his father had played.[1]
