The season after, Karagounis agreed to go on loan to Reggina.[2][3]

The young defender passed the necessary medical tests and the Cypriot club announced his borrowing.[4][5] On 1 February 2016, he signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with Iraklis for an undisclosed fee.[6] On 15 September 2020 he joined Cypriot club Ermis Aradippou, after he was released from Platanias F.C. due to economic problems.[7] On 18 August 2021, he signed with Erovnuli Liga side FC Torpedo Kutaisi.
