Dimitris Zagylos

Dimitris Zagylos (; 15 March 1938 – 10 June 2022) was a Cypriot professional footballer who played as a right winger and a later manager. His nickname was "Dimitrakis"

Club career Zagylos started football at Anorthosis Famagusta, from 1953.

In the summer of 1961, he transferred to AEK Athens, who paid the sum of 320,000 drachmas for his acquisition. Zagylos showed aspects of his talent in Greece as well, standing out for his inexhaustible combativeness, his elaborate game and his excellent attacks, however, due to injuries, he did not perform as well as he could. In April 1962 he secretly left for Cyprus, because AEK had not found him a job as promised. In fact, he had worked for two weeks in the shop of an agent of AEK, but was fired without knowing the reason. After almost a month he came back after the people of AEK assured him that they would find him a job with a satisfactory salary.

He played in AEK until October 1963 and then returned to Anorthosis, winning another Cup in 1964, scoring in the final against APOEL. He played at the club of Famagusta until 1968, when he finished his football career.
