Giorgos Giakoumakis

Celtic striker Giorgos Giakoumakis has picked up another award that was presented to him by a very special person indeed. “Celtic striker Giorgos Giakoumakis was awarded by his village’s cultural association for his sports career so far. The award was handed to him by his proud grandpa, Giorgos Giakoumakis, and this probably the cutest video you’ll see today,” Panos Kostopoulos, the Madrid based football journalist stated.

Giorgos Giakoumakis is a man in blistering form right now, with the Greek striker arriving at Celtic last summer after topping the Eredivisie scoring charts with VVV-Venlo in the 2020/21 campaign. It was not a great start for him at Parkhead though as he spent the majority of the first half of this season out on the sidelines, dealing with one injury or another.

Giorgos Giakoumakis insists Celtic must keep their focus to the end to ensure they get over the line in the cinch Premiership. The Hoops moved six points clear of city rivals Rangers after grinding out a 2-1 Glasgow derby victory at Ibrox on Sunday. While former Celtic defender Alan Stubbs...

Giorgos Giakoumakis praised Celtic’s relentless performance in their thumping 4-0 cinch Premiership win over 10-man Ross County on Saturday. In an exhilarating first half the Greece striker scored the first two goals of his second successive Parkhead hat-trick before assisting Daizen Maeda with his counter from close range. Then...

Celtic striker Giorgos Giakoumakis is rated 50/50 for Wednesday’s visit of St Mirren. The Greek forward missed Sunday’s draw with Hibernian through illness and a late decision will be made on his fitness, with a starting spot unlikely. Mikey Johnston (ankle), David Turnbull, Albian Ajeti and Kyogo Furuhashi...

Once again, Celtic left it late. And once again, their performance raised a lot of questions. But what matters more than anything else is that they found a way to win, unlike the Rangers, who dropped a couple of points after a 1-1 draw. This means that the 3-2 win over Dundee, thanks to a brilliant hattrick from Giorgos Giakoumakis, takes the Hoops three points clear at the top of the table.

Giorgos Giakoumakis made a bold cinch Premiership title claim after his hat-trick helped Celtic to a dramatic 3-2 win over Dundee at Parkhead. The Hoops went into the home game against the league’s bottom side knowing champions Rangers had dropped two points against Dundee United at Tannadice earlier in the day.

Many Celtic fans had already written Giorgos Giakoumakis off after a disappointing start to his Parkhead career, which had seen the Greek striker spend the majority of his time on the sidelines as he suffered one injury after another. And when he was on the pitch, he did not seem particularly impressive either, although he did provide a very different option to what Ange Postecoglou had available to him up front.

Ange Postecoglou backed Giorgos Giakoumakis to bounce back quickly after the striker missed a stoppage-time penalty in a goalless draw with Livingston. Giakoumakis saw his weak effort saved by Max Stryjek after Livi defender Ayo Obileye had gifted Celtic the perfect chance to go top of the cinch Premiership. The...
