Aris Nikolaos Helling Vaporakis (born 6 January 1995) is a Danish footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Danish 1st Division side B.93.

Career

Club career

Aris joined B 1903 as a 5-year-old and played until U17 in B 1903, after which he moved on to F.C. Copenhagen. Here he played for a few seasons before moving to the Danish 1st Division club Akademisk Boldklub as a senior player. However, Vaporakis was only used in the cup tournament, as he was a reserve for Jannich Storch.

Ahead of the 2015–16 season, Vaporakis signed with FC Helsingør. He made his debut for the club in the 17th round of the 2015-16 Danish 1st Division against FC Fredericia, as the first goalkeeper, Mikkel Bruhn, had fallen ill. In his first season, Vaporakis made seven appearances. In the 2016–17 season, Vaporakis also made 7 appearances for Helsingør, contributing to their promotion to the 2017-18 Danish Superliga. In May 2017, he signed a 2-year contract extension.

In the 2017–18 season, Vaporakis was still behind Bruhn in the queue. Therefore, in April 2018, he was loaned out to Icelandic club Víkingur until the end of October. Vaporakis played the first two games in Iceland before an injury and a new competitor put an end to playing time. Therefore, he terminated his loan spell in the summer and returned home to Helsingør, with whom he terminated his contract in August 2018. He then started training with Brønshøj Boldklub.

In 2019 he was affiliated with his former club Akademisk Boldklub for a short period, after which he switched to Hellerup IK in August 2019. In January 2020 he made the move to B.93. Vaporakis made his debut in 2020 in a home match against Næsby Boldklub, where B.93 won 4–0. In the 2020/21 season Aris started in 27 of the 31 matches. In May 2024, Vaporakis had his contract extended until June 2025.

Personal life

Aris Vaporakis has a Danish mother, a Greek father and a twin brother.
