'''Leonidas Kabantais''' (born in March 8, 1982 in Athens, Greece) is a football player, currently playing for [[AEK Athens FC]]

=Career=
== In [[Aris FC]] ==
Kabantais began his professional career in [[Aris FC]] in 2002, appearing in 11 matches in [[Alpha Ethniki]] scoring 2 goals. He remained in [[Salonica]] for another year, scoring 1 goal in 7 appearances.

== The Move to AEK Athens ==
He joined [[AEK Athens]] in 2004, while AEK had been facing serious economical problems. Although [[Demis Nikolaidis]] (Chairman) and [[Ilija Ivic]] (Managing Director) knew that he had injury problems with his knee, they decided to sign him. Kabantais, picked number 11, which was used by Nikolaidis, who was a fan favourite), By that time, AEK had no great player for a second Striker to partner [[Nikos Lyberopoulos]], the co-captain. However, Kabantais missed the chance to help AEK Athens, scoring just 2 goals in 11 appearences, due to serious injury problems.

In Season 2005, [[Fernando Santos]] proposed him to go on-loan, to gain the required experience. He agreed, and moved to [[Anorthosis Famagusta FC]], where [[Temuri Ketsbaia]] (a former player of AEK Athens) was a player-manager. However, Kabantais returned after 6 months, in January of 2006, having personal problems with Ketsbaia.

He moved then to [[Panionios FC]] for 6 months. Panionios had the option of buying the player. At first, he did not play very well, but later he scored 2 very important goals.

----
In 2006, [[Ilija Ivic]] told him that the best for him was to go on-loan again. However, Kabantais was unwilling to go, unless the new manager ordered him to do so. Serra Ferrer (the new manager), gave him enough chances to prove his worth, as he did.

Even though not considered a first team regular, he was one of the best players in the friendly matches.

==International career==
Kabantais played for the Greek Olympic Team in [[2004]].

=Trivia=
*One of his best friend is [[Simos Krassas]]. They have been playing for AEK Athens for 1 year, and then they were both given on-loan to [[Panionios FC]]
