Career
Callas joined Carrington FC in 2004 from FC Carrington II. He made his first appearance in the 2004-05 season. For 2005-06, he was given the AFC's Young Player Award and he would win the prize again the next season. Callas became the league top assister in 2006-07, also snatching the Player of the Year award. In summer 2007, he transferred to Sevilla CF in Spain for €3,500,000 (an initial one year contract). Callas made a few appearances and some key assists, but was in frequent arguments with his coach, faced serious injuries and by early 2008 was under-performing. In summer 2008, Callas was not given an extension and moved to Grijzestad Strijders on a free transfer. At Grijzestad, he could not find good form except in the most important matches. In April 2009 he made three assists and scored a goal in a 4-2 win over St. Marks Koningstad in a cup semifinal, but apart from that was not cooperating well with the team. That summer he was sold to Carrington FC for €1,000,000. The 2009-10 season looked to be another dismal one, but in the new year as quickly becoming a valuable player. Assisting in all their scoring matches from mid-January on, he helped them to a fifth place finish in April (up from 11th in December). The next season he was again the provider, except the team could not pull through and ended just two points above relegation. In 2011-12, Carrington was relegated and this season he has played in the 2. Liga. Despite his commitment to the club, he has stated that he would like to continue playing in the first league "this winter or summer".
