Ioannis "Giannis" Petrakis (born May 20, 1959 in Rethymno) is a retired Greek football player and current football manager.
Petrakis began his football career with his local side Asteras Perama, before moving to Heraklion and Ergotelis in 1978. In 1981 Petrakis moved to local rival OFI, playing in the Alpha Ethniki, the top level football league in Greece before returning to a Gamma Ethniki side Ergotelis in 1985, where he reached the 1985–86 Greek Cup quarterfinals. In 1988, he returned to his hometown Rethymno to play for EAR Rethymnou, before ending his career with Heraklion-based Poseidon, with whom he won his only title, the 1990–91 Delta Ethniki championship.
Petrakis began his coaching career in 1991 at Asteras Perama. He took over Ergotelis in 1992, before returning to Asteras Perama in 1994. Up next in 1997, Petrakis was hired by Heraklion-based club Irodotos, whom he promoted to the Gamma Ethniki, the third tier of the Greek football league system. He then took over management of Malia local club PANOM, whom he promoted to the Delta Ethniki (the fourth tier of the Greek football league system) for the first time in their history. He achieved the same feat with the amateur department of OFI Crete, OFI 94, where was manager from 2000 until 2002, when the club appointed him assistant to OFI's head coach Zdeněk Ščasný. In 2003, Petrakis returned to Irodotos, and managed to promote the club to the Gamma Ethniki once again.
