Ioanna Chamalidou (Greek: Ἰωάννα Χαμαλίδου, born 11 October 1996 in Giannitsa, Greece)[7] is a Greek footballer who plays as a forward for Panathinaikos and the Greece women's national team.

Club career

From 2011 to 2018, Chamalidou played for the Greek Women's A Division team PAOK. While at PAOK, Chamalidou won six Greek A Division championship titles and five Greek Women's Cup championship titles.[3] She participated in the 2010–11 UEFA Women's Champions League, all three Group 6 matches in the 2013–14 UEFA Women's Champions League qualifying round,[8] all five matches in the 2015–16 UEFA Women's Champions League, scoring one goal against FC NSA Sofia.[8] Chamalidou could not play during her last two seasons at PAOK due to two successive injuries.[7]

By November 2018, Chamalidou had left PAOK, who had intended to loan her to a club outside of Thessaloniki. As she was attending the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Chamalidou rejected the offer and transferred to the A Division team Aris Thessaloniki.[3][7][9][10]

In July 2019, Chamalidou moved to Spain to sign with Zaragoza CFF, which plays in the North Group of the Segunda División Pro League.[3][9][10]

By the end of January 2020, Chamalidou had transferred to the Istanbul-based Beşiktaş J.K. to play in the second half of the 2019–20 Turkish Women's First Football League.[3][11][9]

On 23 June 2020, she returned to Greece to play for A Division club Doxa 2016,[12] but due to COVID-19 restrictions, she went back to Spain in January 2021, this time for Primera Federación club CD Badajoz.[3] In the summer of the same year, she moved once again to Cyprus to play for Aris Limassol where she remained for the 2021/22 season.

On 2 November 2022, Chamalidou returned to Greece with A Division club OFI.

International career

As a member of the Greek women's national under-19 football team, Chamalidou took part in the 2014 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship qualification round, playing three matches and scoring a penalty against Kazakhstan.[13][14][15] She also played in three matches at the 2015 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship qualification round.[16][17][18]

Chamalidou was then called up to the Greek women's national team and appeared in one of the UEFA Women's Euro 2017 qualifying Group 3 matches.[19] After an injury that kept her off the national team list, Chamalidou returned to the team in 2020.[20] She was a member of the team at the UEFA Women's Euro 2022 qualifying round and the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup qualification round.[2]
