Theofannis Gekas It's one of the top scorers in the history of Greece, almost one of the best players in the history of Greek football. Scorer profession, It has swelled to score goals on all sides where it has been less in the Spanish League where he arrived in the summer of 2012 to play a Levante that year made debut in the Europa League.

Born in 1980, Gekas, Spain reached the cartel elite scorer and a huge curriculum with teams like Bayer Leverkusen, Panathinaikos FC, Bochum and Hertha Berlin among many teams in a long and profitable career. further, Greek came to be the front of a reference “Eurolevante” and the complicated mission to forget Arouna Kone who had gotten away with a season before granota zamarra.

Gekas was only half a season in the Levant and only scored one goal

Since its inception promised his goal, the only player who scored as Levantine, sealed the granota pass the group stage of the Europa League when the second leg played at the Ciutat de Valencia, Greek Scottish Motherwell scored the final 1 a 0 in an eliminator that granotas had already headed in Scotland.

And this was the only thing he did as important Levante player because he played only 6 Total matches, the last out a few minutes from the bench. The arrival of Obafemi Martins started the season and blocked her way in the league where I started as a starter and unable to play Nigeria in European competition until the knockout phase, He played in the Europa League where he ended up losing the site with the canary Angel.

I eventually had to leave in the winter for Turkey, country has spent most of his career, leaving the impression that perhaps, in the Valencian set they could have gotten more out of a forward certain level happened with more pain than glory for the League. In Brazil 2014 by the way, He missed the decisive penalty that gave the pass to Costa Rica against his former teammate Keylor Navas.
