Kostas Negrepontis
About
Kostas Negrepontis (Greek: Κώστας Νεγρεπόντης; 31 October 1897 – 19 February 1973) was a Greek international footballer who played as a center forward in the 1920s and 1930s and was later a coach. He was considered a great virtuoso of the ball, football intelligence and a great shooter. He was a figure and was so dear to his fellows that never leaves their memory. Those who lived near him, those who worked with him, spoke with admiration about "Negro", as the fans called him. Calm, likeable and always optimistic, Negrepontis was the idol of fans and opponents. Negrepontis was one of the pillars of Greek football in his first steps and contributed to it both as a footballer and as a coach as well as a football teacher for prospective coaches. He was distinguished for his passion, selflessness in terms of the progress of the Greek football, but especially for his beloved AEK which he watched even when he got sick. Negrepontis was awarded for his great athletic activity in Greece by King Paul and by the Association of Sports Editors.
