Angelos Postecoglou (also Postekos) (born 27 August 1965) is an Australian football (soccer) coach and former player. He is the only person to have been involved in all four of South Melbourne's National Soccer League title winning teams, the first two as a player and the latter two as coach. He is currently the coach of Greek Third Division side Panachaiki.
Postecoglou played 193 games from 1984 to 1993 for South Melbourne FC in the National Soccer League, where he was involved in their 1984 and 1990/91 titles, the latter as captain, before moving into coaching. He coached South Melbourne from 1996 until 2000, where he led South Melbourne FC to consecutive NSL titles in 1997/98 and 1998/99, as well as winning the 1999 Oceania Club Championship, which in turn led to their participation in the 2000 FIFA Club World Championships.
In his international playing career, Postecoglou represented Australia on four occasions from 1986 to 1988.
After the 1999/2000 NSL season, he stood down from the South Melbourne FC coaching role when he was appointed Australian national football team youth coach. He was replaced in February 2007 following a number of years as coach of Australia's youth sides during which time he played a role in identifying and developing Australian players.1.
Following his departure as coach of the Australian youth teams, Postecoglou worked as a guest pundit for Fox Sports, an Elite Consultant to Football Federation Victoria. In March 2008 he was appointed coach of Greek side Panachaiki.
