Kostas Nikolaidis

Kostas Nikolaidis was a Greek football forward of the 1960s and 1970s.

Nikolaidis was born in 1944 and joined AEK for the 1966 season replacing Kostas Papageorgiou as the right-side striker that partnered Mimis Papaioannou in AEK's attacking line. His career at AEK lasted until 1975 when he joined Apollon Athens. The 1976 season would be his last.

Nikolaidis made a total of 248 appearances in his Alpha Ethniki career, scoring 94 goals. He was capped 4 times by the National Football Team of Greece.

In 2021, he was in the news as his home in Drosopigi was one of many that burnt down during the summer fires that broke out that year.
