Panagiotis Kordonouris (; born 8 November 1975) is a Greek former footballer. He spent the majority of his career in Crete, representing clubs at various competition levels spanning the Greek Super League to Crete's amateur regional competitions.
Playing career Born in Amaliada, Kordonouris began playing football with his local side Asteras Amaliada, before being spotted by Alpha Ethniki club Panachaiki in 1996. He played for Panachaiki for five seasons, between 1996 and 2001, registering over 150 appearances across all competitions. He then moved to fellow Alpha Ethniki side Skoda Xanthi, where he stayed for four years but made only 36 league appearances. He moved on loan to Beta Ethniki side Ergotelis in July 2005, and helped his club earn promotion to the Super League as champions. Ergotelis renewed his contract for the 2006−07 season, after Kordonouris was released by Skoda Xanthi. He stayed with the Cretans until 2010, when he was offered a post in the managerial team at age 35 which Kordonouris refused. He returned to his former club Panachaiki for six months and eventually signed with Football League side Levadiakos for the rest of the season.
Kordonouris returned to Crete after his brief stint at Levadiakos, having celebrated another promotion. He signed with Gamma Ethniki side AO Chania and left the club after six months to join fellow Cretan third-tier competitors Rouvas until the end of the season. He then signed his final professional contract with P.A.O. Krousonas, also in the Gamma Ethniki, before dropping down to play in the amateur regional competitions of the Heraklion Football Clubs Association.
