The cause of death of panathinaikos footballer George Baldock remains unknown.
Panathinaikos and Greek national team defender George Baldock has died. He is 31 years old. The 31-year-old football player was found dead yesterday in Athens.
According to Gazzetta.gr, Baldock was in the pool of his rented house. After he didn’t answer his wife’s calls, he started to find out what happened. He called the owner of the house, who discovered the football player’s body in the pool.
It is known that no injuries were found on Baldock’s body. In all likelihood, he had died some time before.

Note that Baldock was born in Great Britain, but has Greek roots and, because of his origins, represents the Greek national team in international competitions. He made his debut for the national team in 2022, and played 12 matches for the national team in total.
From 2017 to 2024, George played for Sheffield United, where he made 219 appearances, 6 goals, 16 assists. This summer he moved to Panathinaikos as a free agent. He managed to play four matches for the team. He played the last game of his life on October 6 against Olympiacos – the seventh round of the Greek Championship, 0:0.
We remind you that the former president of the FFU, Anatoly Konkov, died earlier.
