I highly doubt that. I grew up with his father, and I played youth football with him before I left Czechoslovakia for the USA. Michal Papadopulos's grandfather was from Giannitsa in northern Greece. His father Tanas played only briefly for Panathinaikos back in 1980's. I think he only played in 6 official games before returning back to Czechoslovakia. Last time I talked to him in 1993, he was a supporter of Greek soccer, but not a fan of any specific team. He told me, that when he visits Greece, he stays mainly in Thessaloniki and Halkidiki.
Additionaly, Michal Papadopulos has been quoted that of the Greek teams he likes PAOK, since his family visits Thessaloniki a lot. I believe that one summer he also took part in a PAOK football camp.
Anyway, I would be interested to find out how he has played for Herenveen so far.
