Georgios Iordanidis (Greek: Γεώργιος Ιορδανίδης, Greek pronunciation: [ʝeˈorʝios iɔrðaˈniðis]; born 17 October 1989) is a Greek professional football coach and former player. He was most recently the head coach of the Greece Amputee FA of the European Amputee Football Federation (EAFF).

Early life, coaching career, and education

He was born in Athens into a middle-class household as the younger son of an auto electrician and his wife, a secondary school principal. He played senior-level football for Eleftheroupoli, PAO Kalyvion, IFA Blackpool, Sholing, Cosmos Giants, and QK Southampton, but several injuries terminated his career. In July 2014, he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Football Studies from Southampton Solent University, and earlier that year, he received the FA Level 2 coaching badge from the English FA. On February 12, 2016, Greece Amputee FA appointed him as the national team's head coach. In his debut, Greece Amputee FA drew 3-3 to AEK Futsal in a friendly game. In June 2016, he led the national team in its inaugural participation in the EAFF Amputee Football Weeks camp. In January 2017, he organized a charity event to collect food supplies for homeless people in Athens. On January 11, 2017, he resigned from his position due to military service obligations. In an effort to raise the awareness of young offenders on road culture and safety issues, RSI invited him to visit the Avlonas juvenile detention center on January 18, 2017, as an experiential guest. He has also worked as a talent identification scout for GKS Górnik Łęczna and Wisła Kraków in the Lotto Ekstraklasa for two straight seasons (2016–17, 2017–18). In October 2022, he received his Master of Science in Football Coaching from the University of East London's Global Institute of Sport. In October 2023, he obtained the UEFA B coaching license from the Hellenic Football Federation. Apart from his native Greek, he speaks English, Spanish, and French to varying degrees of fluency.

"He is a bright lad; he likes our set-up, and he speaks ever such good English. He should fit in well."

– Dave Diaper, in Southern Daily Echo, Non-League Spotlight by Wendy Gee, on October 28, 2011.
