Liverpool confirm Kyrgiakos Signing
Liverpool have today completed the signing of Greek international defender Sotirios Kyrgiakos from AEK Athens.
The 30-year-old has put pen to paper on a two-year deal with the option of a further year after successfully completing a medical.
Trikala-born Kyrgiakos began his career at the Panathinaikos academy in 1996 before being loaned out to Greek second division club Agios Nikolaos.
He was recalled by his parent club in 2001 and the powerful centre-back quickly established himself as a regular member of the Panathinaikos first team, helping them to a Greek league and cup double in 2004.
In January 2005, Kyrgiakos acquired his first taste of British football as he joined Glasgow Rangers on loan.
After clinching the Scottish title and League Cup, the deal was made permanent in the summer of the same year as the 6ft 4ins defender agreed a one-year contract at Ibrox.
The Bundesliga was his next destination with the tough-tackling stopper sealing a transfer to Eintracht Frankfurt in 2006, where he spent two seasons before joining AEK last summer.
A knee injury kept Kyrgiakos out of Greece's historic triumph at Euro 2004, although he started each of his country's three matches in the same tournament four years later.
In total, he has won 50 caps for the Greek national team.
