Georgios Charalambous Georgiadis (Greek: Γεώργιος Γεωργιάδης,[2] born 8 March 1972) is a Greek former professional footballer, now a football coach.

Playing career
Born in Kavala, Greece, Georgiadis' family, soon after his birth, left for Stuttgart, Germany, where young Giorgos first learned to play football. He returned to Greece, as a teenager and signed up for amateur side Keravnos Krinides. Soon he was discovered by Alpha Ethniki club Doxa Drama who signed him at age 17.
He transferred to major club Panathinaikos and played for the Athens greens from the 1993–94 until the 1997–98 season. He was member of the squad who reached the Champions League semi finals in 1995–96. His exposure to European football brought an offer from English Premiership side, Newcastle United, for £420,000 and Georgiadis joined fellow Greek Nikos Dabizas at St James' Park in the 1999 season. During that year, Newcastle United made it to the FA Cup Final but lost out to Manchester United. It was in the FA Cup that Georgiadis scored his only Newcastle goal, in the 4–1 win over Everton.[3]
Georgiadis returned to Greece to play for PAOK from 2000 until 2003 before transferring to Olympiacos. Georgiadis was also a member of the Greece squad that won the UEFA Euro 2004.
He was released by Olympiacos after the 2004–05 season and was signed up by Iraklis Thessaloniki. After one and a half seasons with Iraklis, Georgiadis left the club as a free transfer to PAOK in January 2007. On 1 July 2008, he retired from professional football as a player.
He was capped 61 times and has scored 11 goals for the Greece national team. He won three Greek First Division with Panathinaikos and Olympiacos and six Greek Cups with Panathinaikos, Olympiacos and PAOK.
