Remembering Ilias Poullos 33 years after his passing

October 23, 2026, marks the 33rd anniversary of the death of Ilias Poullos, a prominent figure in the history of Omonia. Poullos lost his life in a car accident on October 23, 1993, at the age of 48, while returning home from the club's premises.

Serving as the vice-president of Omonia from 1990 until his death, Poullos is primarily recognized for his pivotal role in the development of the club's modern athletic facility. He championed the vision of a dedicated training center, which became a reality during the 1988-1989 period. In recognition of his contribution, the training complex was named after him, a title it retains to this day.

His legacy continues to be honored by the club as a central pillar of its infrastructure history. The anniversaries of his passing serve as a reminder of his lasting impact on Omonia's development and institutional growth.
