Georgios Zisopoulos (el|Γεώργιος Ζησόπουλος; born 23 May 1984) is a Greek former professional footballer who played as a defensive midfielder.
Born in Katerini, Zisopoulos began playing football for PAOK, signing a professional contract in December 2004.

He would only make 18 league appearances for the club before moving to Levadiakos in August 2005. He stayed in the club for five consecutive years, before he joined Greek second division side Panthrakikos in August 2010. He returned to Levadiakos F.C. after a year playing for two years in Super League. On 11 June 2013 Zisopoulos signed for Asteras Tripoli.[1] On 21 August 2014, he scored his first goal in international competition in a 2-0 home win against Maccabi Tel Aviv for the 1st leg qualification round of UEFA Europa League.[2] According to a Greek newspaper, Israeli, Belgian and Turkish clubs are interested in signing the defensive midfielder and Israeli Premier League club Hapoel Be'er Sheva have made an official transfer offer, but he seems not willing to continue his career at Israel.[3]
