On 7 October 2020, the talented goalie signed a new contract with Olympiacos until the summer of 2024 for an undisclosed fee.[2]

The followin season season, Tzolakis was mainly the 3rd choice keeper of Olympiacos, but he still managed to play a total of 6 games; 5 league appearances and 1 Cup appearance against Aris. He kept a clean sheet against Asteras Tripolis twice.

On 21 July 2021, Tzolakis made a crucial save and kept a clean sheet in his european debut against Neftchi Baku in a 1–0 home win on the 2nd qualification round of UEFA Champions League.[3]
