[hide]Club career[edit]
Trikala
After leaving Olympiacos' youth team in 2008, he moved to Trikala in order to play for the team of AO Trikala.
Asteras Tripolis
Because of his good appearances with the Greece under-17 national team, Vangelis Vlachos, Asteras's manager convinced him to join the Peloponeesean team. He made his debut in a draw with PAOK in Tripolis. He scored his first goal against AEK Athens. Due to his good performances at Asteras, Juventus made an offer in the winter transfer window for a loan transfer until summer with an option to buy him. Asteras finally declined Juventus's offer.
1. FC Kaiserslautern
Fortounis signed a four-year contract for 1. FC Kaiserslautern.
