Kostas Lamprou

Early years

Born in Athens, Lamprou started at amateur club Atromitos Elpida and was scouted by Dutch club Ajax at an international indoor football tournament, where he played as a guest player with the youth of Panathinaikos. He joined Ajax's youth academy at the age of thirteen but was released after six months. After this, he went to play with the amateurs of Amstelveen/Heemraad. There, he stood out among the scouts of Feyenoord and entered their youth academy at Varkenoord. At the age of sixteen, he signed his first professional contract.

Feyenoord

Lamprou made his Feyenoord debut in the 2009–10 preseason. A year later, Lamprou went on loan to Excelsior but returned to Feyenoord during the winter break after failing to establish himself in the first team at Woudestein. He was given a first-team squad number at De Kuip and was named among the substitutes for a number of Eredivisie games. Lamprou's official debut came in the KNVB Cup against AGOVV Apeldoorn on 20 September 2011, a 4–0 win for Feyenoord. He spent the rest of the season as second-choice keeper behind Erwin Mulder. The former Sparta Rotterdam and PSV goalkeeper Pim Doesburg commented: "Lamprou is a fantastic keeper. I think he'll have to surrender his spot, management will prefer Mulder. But if it were up to me, I would always leave him in. He has a good kick, good reflexes, is agile and has been playing very well recently. They tell him he is too short. That's ridiculous, no one has ever…

Lamprou's consistency meant his first international call up in October 2012 from Fernando Santos, the coach of Greece national football team.
