Onisiforos Roushias (Greek: Ονησίφορος Ρουσιάς; born 15 July 1992) is a Cypriot professional footballer who plays as a striker for Cypriot First Division club Enosis Neon Paralimni.
Club career[edit]
Enosis Neon Paralimni[edit]
Born in Paralimni, he began playing football with other children his age for Enosis Neon Paralimni Academy. He was the best goal-scorer for Cyprus National Under 17 league, scoring 26 goals and winning the League with EN Paralimni U-17 team.
Middlesbrough[edit]
Roushias skills and achievements caused English side Middlesbrough to sign him on 1 January 2009. Roushias stayed there for 2.5 years making appearances for Middlesbrough Reserves and Middlesbrough Under 18 team. At Middlesbrough, he improved his skills and prepared ready for a career in a Cypriot First Division team.
Return to Enosis Neon Paralimni[edit]
On 31 July 2011, Roushias returned to Cyprus for a transfer to Enosis Neon Paralimni. This time he was ready to take more chances, and prove that he was able to play for Enosis. Having 18 appearances and scoring two goals in 2011–2012 season, Roushias showed that he could be considered one of the great talents on the island. In the 2012–2013 season, Roushias was apparently sidelined by Enosis manager Ton Caanen, having only eight appearances (seven as a substitution), something that made him to ask for a free transfer. So Roushias left EN Paralimni on 28 December 2012.
