Club career

He started his career in Apollon Kalamarias coming from the club's youth-system. Despite his relatively young age he played first-team football and appeared really mature which attracted the interest of bigger clubs.

Shortly afterwards, he gained a starting spot in PAOK alongside club legend Theodoros Zagorakis. His best season to date is the 2006–2007 where he helped the team's cause scoring three goals also. In 2007–2008 season, and with new coach Fernando Santos preferring Sotiris Balafas and Lambros Vangelis at first and then Ricardo Matias Verón, he was restricted as a substitute but injury problems gave him the chance to play as a right defender where his performance regained his manager's faith in him.

The 2008–2009 season didn't start the best way for Iliadis. He played his first game coming as a late substitute against Levadiakos in the 7th matchday, wearing the PAOK captain's armband for the first time. He made his first start a few days later, in a game for the Greek Cup. He was released by PAOK after his contract expired.
