Career

AEL

Pinakas made his professional debut in a home cup game against Irodotos, which ended as a 4–1 win, on 30 October 2018.[2] In the 2019–20 season he made a total of 9 appearances, making a positive impression.

On 29 July 2020, he signed a new three-year contract with the club, running until the summer of 2023.[3]

In the opening game of the 2020–21 season against PAOK, Pinakas came in as a substitute and wore the captain's armband for the first time in his career. After the end of the match, he expressed his gratitude for this honour.[4] On 28 September 2020, he scored his first goal, salvaging a point for his team a few minutes before the final whistle, with the final 1–1 home draw against Panathinaikos.[5] On 31 October 2020, he scored with a penalty early in the first half, opening the score in a 1–1 away draw against Volos.[6] Four days later, he scored a brace, helping to a 2–1 away win against PAS Giannina, the first of the season.[7]

On December 2020, Pinakas scored a temporary equalizer in an eventual 5–1 away defeat against Olympiacos.[8]
