'''Michalis Kapsis''' (born on [[October 18]] [[1973]]) is a [[Greece|Greek]] [[football (soccer)|football]] player who currently plays for [[Olympiakos FC|Olympiakos]] [[Piraeus]] and the [[National Football Team]] of Greece at the position of central defender.

Kapsis turned in a number of impressive performances for Aris [[Nikaia]] in the early [[1990s]] as well as [[Anagennissis Arta]] before helping [[Ethnikos Piraeus FC|Ethnikos Piraeus]]achieve promotion to the [[Alpha Ethniki|Greek top flight]] in his first season at the club, 1993/[[1994|94]]. The step up in class did not have a negative effect on the player's game, Kapsis amassing 30 appearances - his highest tally ever. In total he scored just one goal in 123 games for Ethnikos prior to joining [[AEK FC|AEK]] during the [[1999]] season.

He finished that campaign with 15 AEK appearances under his belt in 1999 and was a regular over the next two seasons before, in 2001/02, he was fined for his involvement in a training ground row with goalkeeper [[Elias Atmatzidis]], as AEK surrendered the championship to Olympiakos CFP in the closing weeks of the season.

In 2002/03, he featured in AEK's six UEFA Champions League draws and played 20 [[Alpha Ethniki]] games. Kapsis was his usual consistent self in what was a disappointing [[2004]] campaign for AEK, who finished fifth.

Fine performances for AEK Athens FC earned Kapsis a call-up for the critical [[Euro 2004]] qualifying matches against Spain and Ukraine; he marked Raúl González and Andriy Shevchenko superbly in famous victories. He was also ever-present in the wonderful run in [[Euro 2004]] that gave Greece the European title, and remained a regular in 2006 World Cup qualifying.

After [[Euro 2004]], he left AEK and signed for FC Girondins de Bordeaux. He played 29 league matches in France, but then returned to Greece on a two-year deal with champions Olympiakos.

== Did you know? ==
His father, [[Anthimos Kapsis]], played for [[Panathinaikos FC|Panathinaikos]] in the 1971 European Champions' Cup final, a 2-0 loss to AFC Ajax.
