Club career edit
Born in Kavala, Topalidis began playing football in the regional leagues with local club Orfeas Eleftheroupoli and joined Gamma Ethniki side PAONE in 2006.[1] After two seasons with PAONE, he signed with Doxa Drama for three seasons, celebrating two promotions with the club[2] – he helped the club reach the 2010–11 Football League promotion play-offs, where they lost to OFI Crete,[3] but Doxa Drama managed to get promoted to the Superleague after all due to the Koriopolis scandal. Topalidis however did not stay at Drama and moved to Greek Football League 2 side Zakynthos for half a year[4] and in February 2012 he signed for Chalkida in the Delta Ethniki.[1] In July 2012 he joined Anagennisi Epanomi in the Greek Football League.[2]
