Early career

[edit]

Vergetis graduated in physical education from the University of Athens in 2000. He later oversaw the youth squad of Panelefsiniakos before moving to Asteras Tripolis in a similar role in 2006. He was then promoted to the club's senior set-up after six months with the youth side. He held multiple coaching roles at Asteras and also worked as a multilingual interpreter and game analyst until 2013.[1]

Asteras Tripolis

[edit]

Vergetis was appointed as the manager of Asteras Tripolis in October 2013.[1] Asteras finished 5th in the 2013–14 Super League Greece, qualifying for the 2014–15 UEFA Europa League second qualifying round. They won both the second and third qualifying rounds against RoPS and Mainz 05 and qualified for the group stage. Asteras was drawn into Group C with Tottenham Hotspur, Partizan and Beşiktaş. On 2 October 2014, their first ever UEFA Europa League group stage win came against Partizan, as they beat the Serbian club 2–0 at home and briefly topped the group.[2]

Under Vergetis, Asteras achieved their best finish in the Super League Greece, finishing third in the 2014–15 season and directly qualifying for the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League group stage for the first time in the club's history. They finished third in the group stage with one home win against APOEL.[3]
