Stavros Labrakis (Greek: Σταύρος Λαμπράκης; born 26 February 1970 in Heraklion, Greece) is a former Greek football player, and occasional manager. He is currently serving as general manager for Greek Football League club OFI.

Career

Labrakis started his football career with local side Kaminia F.C. He then went on to play for Irodotos, Ergotelis, Ialysos and A.O. Agersani Naxos, before returning to Ergotelis in 2000. He was a key player in Ergotelis' run towards celebrating three consecutive promotions from the Delta Ethniki, and managed to play in the Alpha Ethniki for the first time in his career at age 35.[1] Labrakis ended his football career at the end of the 2004–05 season, having played in a total of 21 Superleague matches in which he has scored 2 goals. In total, Labrakis has scored 20 times for Ergotelis in all Greek professional divisions, making him third in the list of professional top-scorers for the club, trailing behind Mario Budimir and Patrick Ogunsoto, with whom he was teammates during his second spell with the club.

Career as manager

After ending his professional career, Labrakis was offered, and currently holds the position of general manager at Ergotelis. He has also managed the club in single matches as interim coach in several occasions, mainly during managerial changes. In 2013 Labrakis, along with the club's longtime U-20 coach Vasilis Plesitis, led the club through 8 Football League matches to eventual promotion to the Superleague after head coach Siniša Gogić' contract was terminated by the club.[2] More of the same came for Labrakis in 2015, when he was called upon to take over as head coach for the club, after Ergotelis mutually terminated its contract with manager Jasminko Velić.[3]
