Career
Born in Melivoia, Rentzas played as an amateur at the local team Filoktitis, until he signed a 5-year professional contract with AEL, on 15 June 2010.[1] He made his professional club debut on 26 October 2010 playing against Ethnikos Piraeus during the 4th round of the Greek Football Cup.
In August 2011, Rentzas was released from his contract with AEL after the club was relegated at the end of the 2010–11 season, and went on to sign a 5-year contract with Superleague Cretan side Ergotelis on August 30, 2011.[2] His contract was renewed for another year on 1 September 2015.[3] After the team withdrew from professional competitions in January 2016, due to major financial problems,[4] Rentzas, who was one of the team's veterans with 61 appearances and 1 goal over the course of 4,5 years and part of only 17 players who had stayed with the club until the very end, was released from his professional contract. Consequently, on 30 January 2016 he returned to AEL once more signing a 2,5-year contract.[5] On July 11, 2018, his move to Panionios got announced.[6]
