I have a contract with Fortuna until summer. I do not know what will happen in January and after that I have the right to negotiate, but as we speak there is absolutely not any communication with PAOK."

I have no choice". Panetolikos On 11 July 2014, Malezas joined Panetolikos on a two-year contract, after he completed his transfer from Fortuna Düsseldorf as a free agent.
