Lazaros Lamprou (Greek: Λάζαρος Λάμπρου; born 19 December 1997) is a Greek footballer currently playing for Panionios F.C. on loan from PAOK FC in the Greek Superleague as a forward.
On 13 March 2014, three years after he joined the U-17 team, Lamprou, along with nine other players, signed his first professional contract with Panathinaikos, the club he has supported since childhood. In 2014, was the only Greek player to feature on a list entitled “TOP 40 young talent in world football – born in 1997″ by The Guardian.
On 28 October 2015, he made his first team debut, in a 3-0 home defeat against Levadiakos for the Greek Cup. After having refused to sign a new contract with Panathinaikos, on 5 September 2016, he agreed to sign a two years' contract with Iraklis. His first appearance and his first goal in Iraklis' shirt came in a Greek Superleague match against AEL, on 12 September 2016.
On 29 December 2016, PAOK has announced the acquisition of the young international from Iraklis for a 3,5 years' contract on an amount of €300.000.
Lamprou is a right footed player but with can as well play with his left foot. He can play in all behind forward positions but as a center for as well. This is due to his excellent sense of the space around the “nets”. Additionally because of his height, he is quite tall for his age, and by taken advantage of careful positioning in the “nets” area he scores quite a few times with his head.
