Nikolaos Lyberopoulos is a Greek football player born on the 4th of September, 1975 in Filiatra, near Kalamata. He is a striker that currently plays football for AEK Athens. Previously, he played for Erani Filiatron, Kalamata FC and Panathinaikos. He is maybe the actual most loved football player from the Peloponnesus.
He has played 45 matches for Greece. In those games he has scored 9 goals, his most memorable being the one against Kazakhstan, winning the match for Greece in the last seconds of additional time. When playing for Panathinaikos he reached the semifinal leg of the UEFA Champions League, playing at extremely good level. Italian clubs, mainly Juventus and Hellas Verona showed interest in hiring him, but his love to the green trefle made him stay in Athens.
In 2002 he entered conflict with Panathinaiko's bosses due to a desired highly-payed contract extension, that made him leave the club. He had offers from arch rivals Olympiakos and Olympique Marseille and RC Lens from France but he finally chose AEK Athens where he is the main weapon of the black and yellow team and also the first offensive choice as well as the team captain. He can play as center forward, right wing and offensive midfielder, and his most recognized gifts are his aim-to-goal shot, his speed and his talent in one-to-one where he hardly ever.
