Charalampos Mavrias ({{langx|el|Χαράλαμπος Μαυρίας}}; born 21 February 1994), known as "Charis" ({{langx|el|Χάρης}}) or "Harry",{{cite web |url=http://www.hibernianfc.co.uk/news/9328 |title=Hibernian Complete Mavrias Signing |publisher=Hibernian FC |date=17 October 2018 |access-date=17 October 2018 |archive-date=17 October 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181017203337/http://www.hibernianfc.co.uk/news/9328 |url-status=dead }} is a Greek professional footballer who plays as a right back or a right midfielder for Super League club Panetolikos.

Club career

=Panathinaikos=

Mavrias joined Panathinaikos' youth academy in 2007, aged 13, and was promoted to the first-team squad in 2010, after signing a professional contract in the previous year. On 20 October 2010 he made his first-team – and UEFA Champions League – debut, playing the last 12 minutes of a 0–0 home draw against Rubin Kazan,{{cite web |url=https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/news/01ea-0e75e20ea325-77d1b01b2919-1000--stalemate-frustrates-panathinaikos-and-rubin/ |title=Stalemate frustrates Panathinaikos and Rubin |date=20 October 2010 |access-date=8 April 2014 |publisher=UEFA.com}} thus becoming the youngest Greek ever to appear in the competition, and the second youngest overall (only behind Celestine Babayaro, being surpassed later by Alen Halilović, Youri Tielemans and Rayan Cherki).{{cite web |url=https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/news/0253-0d042a009474-d3a14de143a9-1000--youngest-champions-league-players-moukoko-yamal-babayaro-c/ |title=The UEFA Champions League's youngest players |date=2 October 2013 |access-date=8 April 2014 |publisher=UEFA}} Four days later he made his league debut, again as a substitute in a 0–1 loss at AEK.

Mavrias scored his first professional goal on 18 February 2012, netting his side's last of a 2–0 success at Ergotellis;{{cite web |url=http://www.superleaguegreece.net/game/1112175 |script-title=el:ΕΡΓΟΤΕΛΗΣ Δ.

=Sunderland=

On 22 August 2013, Mavrias joined English Premier League side Sunderland on a four-year contract, for an undisclosed fee,{{cite news|url=http://www.safc.com/news/team-news/2013/august/greek-international-signs|title=Greek international signs|date=22 August 2013|access-date=22 August 2013|publisher=Sunderland A.F.C.}} rumoured to be £2-3 million.{{cite web |url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11695/8882883/transfer-news-sunderland-sign-greece-winger-charis-mavrias-from-panathinaikos |title=Sunderland sign Greece winger Charis Mavrias from Panathinaikos |publisher=Sky Sports |date=23 August 2013 |access-date=8 April 2014}} However, he was left out of the squad to play Southampton due to lack of match fitness.

Mavrias made his debut five days later, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 4–2 home success over Milton Keynes Dons, for the campaign's Football League Cup.{{cite news

|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23764127 |title=Sunderland 4 – 2 MK Dons |publisher=BBC |date=27 August 2013 |access-date=27 August 2013}} He scored his first goal on 25 January of the following year, netting the winner against Kidderminster Harriers in the fourth round of the FA Cup.{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/25789220 |title= Sunderland 1-0 Kidderminster Harriers|publisher=BBC |date=2014-01-25}}

On 2 February 2015, it was confirmed Mavrias had joined his former club Panathinaikos on loan until the end of the 2014–15 season.

Mavrias returned to Sunderland where he has been training and playing for the Black Cats Under-21s – and is understood to have impressed the club's coaching staff with his attitude and contribution. But Mavrias has not come close to being included in the first-team squad, however is not bitter over seeing his career stall on Wearside. “I took the decision to leave Panathinaikos and go to Sunderland, and I think anyone in my position would take this decision,” he told the Greek press.{{cite web|url=http://www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/sunderland-afc/latest-safc-news/safc-match-analysis/i-don-t-regret-joining-sunderland-claims-international-winger-1-7574638 |title= I don't regret joining Sunderland, claims international winger |publisher=www.sunderlandecho.com|date=17 November 2015}} On 9 January 2016, almost two years after his last match with the first team, Mavrias entered the game in second half as a substitute in a 3–1 away loss against Arsenal for FA Cup.{{cite web|url=http://www.arsenal.com/match/report/1516/post/first-team/arsenal-v-sunderland-match-report |title= Arsenal vs Sunderland 3-1 |publisher=www.arsenal.com|date=9 January 2016}}

=Fortuna Düsseldorf=

He was loaned to Fortuna Düsseldorf on 27 January 2016.{{Cite web|title=Fortuna leiht Charalampos Mavrias aus|trans-title=Fortuna loans Charalampos Mavrias|language=de|date=27 January 2016|access-date=27 January 2016|publisher=Fortuna Düsseldorf|url=http://www.f95.de/aktuell/news/profis/detail/18673-fortuna-leiht-charalampos-mavrias-aus/6556dde68d6dd2b100a5c49c1cae6fc4/}}

Mavrias - who has 18 months remaining on his Sunderland contract - now has a chance to play regular first-team football after joining Düsseldorf until the end of the campaign, with a view to a permanent switch next summer.{{cite web|url=http://www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/sunderland-afc/latest-safc-news/safc-match-analysis/sunderland-continue-january-sales-after-offloading-winger-1-7699453#ixzz3z8dZmsE4|title=Sunderland continue January sales after offloading winger|access-date=1 October 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160305130512/http://www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/sunderland-afc/latest-safc-news/safc-match-analysis/sunderland-continue-january-sales-after-offloading-winger-1-7699453#ixzz3z8dZmsE4|archive-date=5 March 2016|url-status=dead}} On 6 February 2016, he made his debut with a club, in a 0–1 home loss against Heidenheim.

Mavrias performance in Düsseldorf was satisfying, leading the club to set an offer for the Greek international winger. Unfortunately on 24 June 2016, Sunderland reject Fortuna Düsseldorf's lower bid than the £400,000 clause to convert the loan into a permanent switch.{{cite web |url=http://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport/sunderland-afc/latest-safc-news/sunderland-reject-cut-price-german-bid-for-flop-charis-mavrias-1-7980887 |title= Sunderland reject cut-price German bid for flop Charis Mavrias |work=The Shields Gazette |date=24 June 2016}}

=Karlsruher SC=

On 6 September 2016, after three seasons spent playing for Sunderland, only 7 official caps overall collected as a Black Cats man, plus 2 experiences as a loanee (at Fortuna Düsseldorf and Panathinaikos), he joined 2. Bundesliga side Karlsruher SC for a three-years contract.{{cite web|url=http://www.onsports.gr/Podosfairo/Eyrwph/Germania/item/543012-Stin-Karlsroyi-o-Mayrias |title= Στην Καρλσρούη ο Μαυρίας |date=6 September 2016}} On 10 September 2016, he made his debut with the club in a 4–0 away loss against Union Berlin. Unfortunately, KSC harboured hopes of promotion back to the Bundesliga this summer, after finishing seventh last term had erupted during the year as the club relegated to Germany's third tier.

=Rijeka=

On 24 August 2017, Mavrias joined Rijeka in the Croatian First Football League on a one-year contract with a three-year extension option.{{cite web |url=http://radio.hrt.hr/radio-rijeka/clanak/charalampos-mavrias-novi-je-igrac-rijeke/152003/ |title=Charalampos Mavrias novi je igrač Rijeke |language=hr |first=Korado |last=Vujnović |date=24 August 2017 |access-date=24 August 2017 |archive-date=27 November 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171127204800/http://radio.hrt.hr/radio-rijeka/clanak/charalampos-mavrias-novi-je-igrac-rijeke/152003 |url-status=dead }}{{cite web | url=http://www.nk-rijeka.hr/vijest/charalampos-mavrias-novi-igrac-hnk-rijeka/ | title=Charalampos Mavrias novi igrač HNK Rijeka | language=hr | date=24 August 2017 | access-date=24 August 2017 | archive-date=22 January 2021 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210122154522/http://nk-rijeka.hr/vijest/charalampos-mavrias-novi-igrac-hnk-rijeka/ | url-status=dead }}

=Hibernian=

Mavrias signed with Scottish Premiership club Hibernian in October 2018 on a short-term contract, following a trial period.{{cite web |url=http://www.hibernianfc.co.uk/news/9328 |title=HIBERNIAN COMPLETE MAVRIAS SIGNING |publisher=Hibernian FC |date=17 October 2018 |access-date=17 October 2018 |archive-date=17 October 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181017203337/http://www.hibernianfc.co.uk/news/9328 |url-status=dead }} He made two first-team appearances for Hibernian, but then suffered a hamstring injury and was released at the end of his contract.{{cite web |url=https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hibs/hibs-confirm-departure-of-greek-right-back-charalampos-mavrias-1-4849342 |title=Hibs confirm departure of Greek right-back Charalampos Mavrias |work=Edinburgh Evening News |date=28 December 2018 |access-date=28 December 2018}}

International career

On 19 March 2019, Greece head coach Angelos Anastasiadis announced the call up of Mavrias for the match against Liechtenstein and Bosnia and Herzegovina for UEFA Euro 2020. Mavrias's talent is undoubted and has added versatility to his game, demonstrating he is able to operate as a right back if need be. His form in Cyprus has been patchy which again makes his selection fascinating. Anastasiadis may see him as a ‘wildcard’ option to throw on off the bench as his speed could add another dimension to a team severely lacking such a trait. He has already featured for the Greece national team on five occasions, but his last appearance came in 2014 as the Greece lost to Serbia in a friendly.{{cite web|publisher=www.contra.gr |script-title=el:Η λογική πίσω από τις κλήσεις Αναστασιάδη |url=https://www.contra.gr/Soccer/Hellas/National-Greece/logiki-pisw-klhseis-anastasiadh.5467275.html |language=el|date=19 March 2019}}
