'''Michalis Konstantinou''' (born [[February 19]], [[1978]] in [[Paralimni]], [[Cyprus]]) is a [[football (soccer)]] striker who currently plays for [[Olympiakos FC|Olympiakos]] in [[Piraeus]], [[Greece]]. He got his start in professional football playing for [[Enosis Neon Paralimni FC]], but was picked up by [[Iraklis FC]] in [[1997]]. Konstantinou's fame grew significantly during his stay at Iraklis, spurred by his goalscoring record: In 119 games, he scored 60 goals. In [[2001]], [[Panathinaikos FC|Panathinaikos]] bought him for €11.3 million, which was the highest price ever paid in the annals of Greek football. With Panathinaikos, he had the opportunity to play in the Champions' League and earned praise for his role in the team's performance there, especially in his first year with the club. He is also a mainstay of the [[Cyprus National Football Team]], and he has scored 19 goals in 46 appearances for Cyprus. On [[July 14]], [[2005]], although he had repeatedly told the Panathinaikos administration that he would either stay in Panathinaikos or go to a foreign team, he became a player of [[Olympiakos FC|Olympiakos]], signing a 3-year contract.

''' National team'''

The spearhead of the Cypriot attack, he made his international debut against Albania in August [[1998]] and subsequently averaged almost a goal every other game in his first 35 caps. His blossoming coincided with his nation's vast improvement as a footballing force, although they failed to reach the play-offs for either the [[2000]] or [[2004]] European Football Championship.
