Konstantopoulos didn’t return to Pools following the match at the CNG Stadium last December and has been without a club until Thornaby secured his signature this week.
Following the signing, Thornaby manager Craig Haley said: “Dimi is a top-class signing for the football club, with his levels and experience both in the Premier League and the Championship with Middlesbrough and also his international football career with Greece.”
