Club career

Sydney FC

Petratos made his debut as a substitute for Sydney FC in their Round 13, 1-0 victory over Newcastle Jets at the Sydney Football Stadium during the 2010-11 season. He has played continually since his debut off the bench and has even been in the starting eleven in some games.[1] He scored his first senior Hyundai A-League goal against Gold Coast United on 8 January 2011 which set Sydney on their way to a 2-0 victory.[2] Sydney FC then acted quickly in securing him to a new 2-year professional contract on 13 January 2011, replacing his youth league contract.[3] Petratos secured his position as one of the brightest up and coming talents for Sydney, when he scored a brace against rivals Central Coast Mariners in a 2-2 draw at Bluetounge Stadium.[4]
