He was crowned top scorer of the Cypriot Football A Division twice: in 1967 (29 goals) and 1971 (11 goals).
Stylianou was player of the year in 1973. He ended his career early in the 1978 season. In his playing days he was capped 37 times by the Cypriot National Football Team. In those games he scored one goal (in friendly against Greece on December 9, 1970).
