Andreas Makris

On 13 June 2017, it was announced that Makris would be leaving Walsall after just a single season to return to Cyprus, joining APOEL Nicosia for a fee in the region of €200,000.

In August 2016, after three seasons with Anorthosis, Makris moved away from Cyprus for the first time and signed for English side Walsall. The transfer was a club record fee for the League One side, believed to be in the region of €300,000.

Makris made his debut for Walsall in a League Cup tie against Yeovil Town at Bescot Stadium on 9 August 2016. He struggled to hold down a regular place in the starting line-up for the Saddlers and did not find the net for his new team until his 31st appearance on 8 April 2017, when he scored a half-volley in a 1–1 draw with Oxford United. This proved to be his first and last goal for the club.

In the 2015–16 season, Makris was less successful in front of goal, scoring only 5 goals but did make another 32 appearances for Anorthosis and contributed to the team finishing in third place in the Cypriot First Division.

Makris continued his impressive form into the 2014–15 season, starting regularly for Anorthosis and contributing more goals and assists. After scoring two goals against Doxa Katokopias on 22 November 2014, he signed a new long-term contract with the club, stating "I'll give it all for Anorthosis." He won the Player of the Month award for January and was voted into the Team of the Season for 2014–15, as one of the best three forwards in the league. Makris scored 13 goals in 30 league appearances.

On 27 February 2014, Pambos Christodoulou called Makris to the first team of Cyprus national team for the friendly against Northern Ireland.

Makris made his team debut with Cyprus national team as an 85th-minute substitute in a 0–0 home draw against Northern Ireland on 6 March 2014.

Makris made his debut for Anorthosis as a substitute in a 3–0 away victory over Nea Salamis on 30 November 2013. He scored his first goal for his new club against Alki Larnaca on 11 January 2014.

His impressive form attracted the interest of Real Madrid C, but no agreement was reached because the player could not leave the country because of the need to complete his national military service. By the end of the 2013–14 season, coaches in the Cypriot First Division had voted Makris as the best youth player in the league and he had attracted interest from European giants Juventus, Borussia Dortmund and Everton.

In October 2013, Makris was a member of the team that qualified to UEFA European Under-19 Championship elite round. He played 3 matches and he scored 4 goals.

After progressing through the youth teams at his hometown club, Makris played a full season for the "B" team in 2011–12 and scored 21 goals. This earned him a place in the first team for the 2012–13 season at the age of just 16.

Makris began his football career playing in the Olympic youth academies of Paphos before moving to the Arsenal soccer school of Paphos. He made a step up in 2007, signing for Cypriot Second Division side Atromitos Yeroskipou's youth academy when he was twelve-years-old.
