From there he moved to Panserraikos, making his senior team debut during the 2006–07 season.

After a remarkable presence during his loan to Panserraikos (24 appearances, 2 goals), apart from the positive feedback received from the media,[4] he secured his return to Olympiacos in the summer of 2011.[5] Papazoglou had a three-year presence at Olympiacos, appearing in 46 matches and scoring two goals in all competitions, managing to win three championships and two cups.
