Fanis Tasinos (Greek: Φάνης Τασίνος; 28 October 1940 – 22 April 2018) was a Greek professional footballer who played as a midfielder.
Club career
Tasinos started playing football at the age of 14 at Achilleas Korinthos, where Vangelis Boufis, an official of the club and his employer, gave him a sport's card. Despite the desire of Olympiacos Korinthos to sign him, he was loaned to Panargiakos for a year. The end of his loan and his return to Achilleas coincided with their merge with Olympiacos Korinthos, where Pagkorinthiakos was created. With Pagkorinthiakos he competed in the first national division championship in 1959.
In the summer of 1963, AEK Athens and Panathinaikos were interested for his acquisition.[1] The "greens" offered Pagkorinthiakos 300,000 drachmas and 4 players as an exchange, while the President of AEK, Nikos Goumas offered 500,000 drachmas. Tasinos eventually signed for the yellow-blacks with the help of the President of Pagkorinthiakos, Marinos Psomas. With AEK he played for 3 seasons and made the highlight of his career playing in both matches against Monaco for the qualifying phase of the European Cup,[2] even scoring and 1 goal in the first leg in Monaco on 18 September 1963 which ended in a 7–2 defeat.[3] During his spell in the club he won the Greek Cup twice, in 1964[4] and in 1966.[5] He left the club in March 1967 and joined Corinthians Johannesburg.[6] Afterwards, Tasinos returned to Greece and Korinthos.
