From Sydney to San Sebastián: 10,700 kilometers of passion for PAOK

·

Among the more than 2,000 PAOK fans who traveled to San Sebastián for the match against Real Sociedad, one supporter stood out for his incredible journey to be there.

According to metrosport, Michalis Soumelidis flew all the way from Sydney to Spain, covering 10,700 kilometers just to watch his beloved team play. Although he lives in Australia, his heart belongs to PAOK. Originally from Thessaloniki, he grew up in Eptalofos and became a dedicated fan from a young age, influenced by his close friend and best man, Vangelis Pozatzidis.

This isn’t the first time he has traveled such a long distance for PAOK. Two years ago, he made a similar trip to watch the team in Ghent. With his PAOK banner in hand and his unwavering passion, he doesn’t let cost or fatigue stand in his way.

For Michalis Soumelidis, PAOK and his family come above everything else. And his journey doesn’t end here—on February 20, he’ll be in Bucharest to support his team once again. Missing a match is simply not an option for him.
