Youth career

1. FC Naurod

2002–04

Eintracht Frankfurt

2004–08

In 2004, at the age of 12, Triadis joined the youth system of Eintracht Frankfurt. During his four-year tenure at the club, he was hailed as a big and upcoming prospect for the team. Suffering from a tibia fracture, Triadis' chances quickly diminished.

Wehen Wiesbaden

2008–11

In 2008, and after recovering from his injury, Triadis moved to the youth system of Wehen Wiesbaden, for a transfer fee of €50,000. He was part of the youth team until 2011, having played for both the U17 and U19.

Wehen Wiesbaden II

2010–11

While still being part of the youth team, Triadis also got several chances in the Wehen Wiesbaden II squad, playing in the Regionalliga Süd. He managed to make four appearances. At the end of the season, Wehen Wiesbaden II got relegated to the fifth tier, the Hessenliga.

Senior career

Wehen Wiesbaden

2010–11

In early 2011, at the age of 19, Triadis signed a professional contract keeping him at the club until 30 June 2012. In April 2011, Triadis came off the bench to make his debut in the Hessian Cup semifinal against TGM SV Jügesheim, in a 5–0 victory.[1] He assisted two goals, with a chance of scoring himself.

2011–12

Triadis started playing for both the first team, in the 3. Liga, as well as for the second team, now playing in the Hessenliga. He made his 3. Liga debut on second matchday, a goalless draw against VfB Stuttgart II. More match contributions followed throughout the season, managing to make a total of five appearances for the club, with an additional eight appearances for the second team. At the end of the season, his contract did not get expanded.

Xanthi

2012–13

Following the release from his previous club, Triadis signed with Greek Superleague side Xanthi on a free transfer.[2] He made his debut, on seventh matchday, against Olympiakos, in a 0–4 defeat. Triadis then made his starting line-up debut against PAS Giannina, playing for the whole 90 minutes, and having been named player of the game, despite a 0–1 loss.

2013–14

Triadis made his European debut, in the UEFA Europa League second qualifying round, against Northern Irish side Linfield FC in a 0–1 loss, where he almost scored from a freekick. Xanthi proceeded to the next round after beating Linfield FC with 2–1 after extra time in Northern Ireland. He made an imprint, in the third qualifying round match against Standard Liege, when he came on very strong assisting the goal for Julian De Guzman, having beaten three players and crossing it in for the scorer. Xanthi got eliminated after losing 2-4 on aggregate. This season turned out to become Triadis' breakthrough for Xanthi. He was playing in almost all matches of the season, with a three-goal conversion. Following the first time in six years, playing in Europe, Xanthi disappointedly finished 16th, having to play the Relegation play-off against Olympiacos Volou. Xanthi managed to stay in the Superleague after beating the Thessalian side with 2–1.

2014–15

After last season's uprise, things soon turned opposite for Triadis. During pre-season, an adductor injury left him out for eight months, resulting him to miss the season. Triadis made his debut in the 2014–15 season on 32nd matchday against Panathinaikos, in a 0–2 defeat. The following matchday, he was able to play full-time, in a goalless draw against Asteras Tripolis. His third match of the season came on last matchday against Panthrakikos, which resulted in a 0–2 defeat, finishing Xanthi on 8th place, missing out on the play-offs.

2015–16

Similar to the previous season, Triadis missed out on the first few games, due to a strained muscle. Being able to quickly recover, Triadis managed to contribute to the season and be of use to his team. Xanthi manager Răzvan Lucescu didn't make excessive use of Triadis during this season, using him in only a third of all league matches. Triadis managed to make two assists, against PAOK and Levadiakos, with both matches drawing 1–1 and 2–2 respectively. Xanthi failed to play for a European spot, finishing 13th.

2016–17

Triadis is bound to make his fifth season with Xanthi. He was in the starting lineup, in the first match of the season, a 0–3 loss to Panionios. On 4th matchday, Triadis got substituted in helping his team gain an important point against Atromitos. After having been benched for the majority of the first few league matches, manager Răzvan Lucescu, fielded him as starter in the first cup match against PAS Giannina, in a 0–1 loss. Triadis managed to score his first goal since the 2013–14 season, in an away match against Panetolikos, helping his team on a 2-3 away win. In the match against AEL, a 1–0 home victory, Triadis contributed to the win by assisting for scorer Theodoros Vasilakakis. In a 3–1 win over Iraklis, Triadis scored a goal himself and contributed to the final goal of the match by assisting for Hamza Younes. In the match against AEK, a goalless draw, Triadis was sent off after 58 minutes, after receiving a yellow card four minutes prior. Besides scoring two goals, Triadis ended the season by making six assists, ranking him in second place alongside Kostas Fortounis and Masoud Shojaei, from Olympiacos and Panionios respectively. Xanthi ended the season as 6th, barely missing out on a spot in the playoffs.

2017–18

With Xanthi changing managers, from Răzvan Lucescu to Milan Rastavac, Triadis needed to prove himself, despite a strong previous season, in order to become a starter with the new manager. In the first cup match of the season, a 2–0 victory over Panetolikos, Triadis scored the second goal, making it the very first goal of his career in a non-league match. After mostly being used as a substitute in league matches, Triadis was announced as a starter in the second cup match, a 4–2 win over Ergotelis, in which he took his chance by scoring twice and by making an assist. On 4 November, Triadis made his overall 100th career game in a 3–1 victory over Panetolikos. Shortly thereafter, Triadis fractured his hand leaving him out for several weeks. After a difficult time in which he wasn't getting regular playing time Triadis played full time against Panetolikos, where he gave an assist to Matías Gastón Castro, who scored the 1–0 winning goal.

On 26 January 2019, he made his debut for his new team in a 1–0 win over Chennaiyin, after being substituted on in the 75th minute for Federico Gallego.
