Giakoumakis, el Hércules de la Eredivisie

La figura del goleador es aplicable al concepto del mito. El relato del gol se cuenta a través de las generaciones, da igual que pasen los tiempos, forma parte de nuestra cultura, del día a día. La sociedad que ocupa un coliseo, es decir, un estadio, trata al delantero como ‘bueno’ o ‘malo’ por sus hazañas en el terreno de juego. Asimismo, lo juzgan por una acción que dura como mucho tres segundos. Un fragmento que le define como héroe o villano y que le quedará marcado por el resto de sus días. En la ciudad de Venlo, podrán decir en un futuro que tuvieron un delantero griego mítico. En tiempos en los que no se puede acudir a una cancha, los fans de la «Yellow Black Army» relatarán las hazañas del héroe Georgios Giakoumakis, el Hércules que está batiendo registros de escándalo en la Eredivisie.

 

¿Quién es Georgios Giakoumakis?

Giakoumakis es un delantero de Heraclión, la capital de Creta. Está acaparando los titulares porque acumula 26 goles en 26 partidos en el VVV Venlo. Sin tener un pasado destacado en alguno de sus clubes anteriores, el griego ha explotado su condición de goleador nato.

 

De uno del montón a uno de «los otros»

Hasta esta temporada, Giakoumakis era un delantero más entre otros tantos. De hecho, en sus once años como profesional, casi siempre ha estado por debajo de disputar 15 partidos por año y solo superando una vez la decena de goles. Esto fue en la 2016/2017, en su última campaña para el Platanias, donde anotó 11 goles en 26 encuentros.  Estos registros le sirvieron para fichar por el AEK de Atenas. Sin embargo, no pudo triunfar en la capital de Grecia y sus dos cesiones tanto al OFI Creta como al Gornik Zabrze de Polonia estuvieron marcadas por falta de oportunidades y con poco bagaje goleador.

 

El fichaje galáctico de un club humilde

La modestia del VVV Venlo se resume en su último mercado de fichajes del pasado verano. Llegaron 18 nuevas incorporaciones, de los cuales, 17 se realizaron porque eran agentes libres o por cesiones de otros equipos. El único que tuvo un precio de fichaje fue Giakoumakis, que llegó a la entidad a cambio de 200.000 €. Además, sufrieron 17 bajas. Solo una aportó beneficios económicos por motivos de traspaso. Fue por la venta del canterano Evert Linthorst, que salió por una cantidad de 600.000 € al Al Ittihad Kalba SC de los Emiratos Árabes Unidos.

 

Giakoumakis rompiendo récords

Sin ninguna duda, el delantero griego está rompiendo las estadísticas. Nadie le esperaba en las quinielas, probablemente, ni él mismo se lo imaginaba en sus mejores sueños. Según la base de datos BeSoccer, Giakoumakis lleva 1,17 goles por cada 90 minutos. Además, gana el 13,36 de duelos ganados por cada 90 minutos. Por si fuera poco, está actualmente en la octava posición por la conquista de la prestigiosa Bota de Oro.

El VVV Venlo lleva 37 goles a favor en el campeonato nacional pero 23 de ellos, son por obra del cretense. Esto significa que Giakoumakis aporta el 62% de los goles de los hombres de Hans de Koning. Cifras de escándalo.

 

 

En el Guiness World Record de la Eredivisie

Si bien es cierto que el VVV Venlo fue noticia a comienzos de temporada por encajar la mayor goleada de la historia de la Eredivisie (0-13 ante el Ajax), Giakoumakis está camuflando el papel colectivo del equipo con sus récords individuales.

El heleno, junto a Luis Suárez, son los dos únicos jugadores en marcar dos pókers en una misma Eredivisie en juego en el siglo XXI. De hecho, es el sexto goleador histórico del VVV Venlo, igualando a Keisuke Honda y quedándose a 23 goles de Ralpf Seuntjens, que ocupa el primer puesto, según los datos de la web Transfermarkt.

 

 

Además, puede conseguir un dato curioso que ya logró su compatriota Nikos Machlas, también del mismo lugar de nacimiento que Giakoumakis (Heraclión). En la temporada 1997/1998, el ex del Ajax o Sevilla, marcó 34 goles con el Vitesse, obteniendo la Bota de Oro de aquella temporada.

 

¿Merece ir Giakoumakis a una liga mayor?

El debate está sobre la mesa. En todas las webs deportivas neerlandesas, los aficionados discuten si Giakoumakis merece su subida de valor. La directa del Venlo, comandada por Stan Valckx, lo tasa en 5 millones de euros. Por ejemplo, en el portal «VoetbalPrimeur» destacan una posible oferta del PSV para este verano. En el mismo, los fans de la Eredivisie discuten si un delantero merece el premio de ir a un equipo más grande por solo haber destacado un año en el fútbol profesional. Quién sabe quién tendrá razón pero lo que está claro es que varios conjuntos de la Premier League, del propio campeonato neerlandés y de la Bundesliga se han fijado en el delantero griego.

En definitiva, un atacante que marca un gol por partido en un equipo modesto como es el VVV Venlo, merece como mínimo, el riesgo de invertir por él y ya el tiempo dirá si Giakoumakis fue un espejismo, como lo pudo ser Angelos Charisteas en la Eurocopa de 2004 o un goleador más regular como lo fue durante años Theofanis Gekas.

 

¿Cómo juega Giakoumakis?

Giakoumakis es un estereotipo de delantero clásico. Un rematador con tintes de finalizador y con gran capacidad para marcar goles de cabeza. En las jugadas a balón parado, sabe desmarcarse con facilidad, calculando muy bien los «timings» para deshacerse de la marca. Además, juega bien de espaldas y con gran habilidad para ganar duelos en el juego aéreo.

Asimismo, destaca por ser un gran lanzador de penaltis, tomando siempre la responsabilidad desde los once metros. Además, es ambidiestro, aunque con más predisposición de uso con la derecha para finalizar los remates.
