Alekos Vosniadis (Greek: Αλέκος Βοσνιάδης; born 12 April 1961) is a Greek professional football manager who is the current manager of Super League 2 club AEL.[1][2]
Vosniadis has won promotion to Super League 1, Greece's top division, on four occasions with Apollon Smyrnis, Niki Volou, Kerkyra, and Athens Kallithea.
Career
[edit]Born in Thessaloniki, Vosniadis had a three-year tenure at local third division side Anagennisi Epanomi early into his managerial career, and he would lead Epanomi to promotion in the 2010/11 season, returning the club to the second division after a 29-year absence.[3]
From Epanomi, Vosniadis moved to Apollon Smyrnis with immediate success, winning promotion to Super League 1 in the 2012/13 season.[4]
In January 2014, Vosniadis took on Niki Volou midseason, and would help steer them to a second place finish in the 2013/14 season and promotion to Super League 1, bringing the club back to the top flight for the first time in 48 years.[5]
Vosniadis would return to Apollon midway through the 2014/15 season with the club in the second division, narrowly missing out on promotion while making a run to the semi-finals of the 2014/15 Greek Cup where they were eliminated by Olympiacos.
In the 2015/16 season, Vosniadis would achieve his third promotion to the top division, this time with island side Kerkyra, finishing second in the table and edging out his former club Apollon. He would later return to the club in the middle of the 2017/18 Super League 1 season, earning 15 points from 16 league matches.
From 2018/19 through 2022/23, Vosniadis worked for Chania, Niki Volou, and Apollon in the second division, earning 52 wins and 33 draws from 116 league matches, equaling 1.63 points per match.
In July 2023, Vosniadis was appointed as manager of Athens Kallithea,[6] eventually leading the team back to the first division for the first time in 18 years.[7] In June 2024, AKFC announced that Vosniadis would not return for the following season, but thanked him for his "outstanding work."[8]
