Gentsoglou moved to the defensive midfield position in the middle of the 2009-10 season and became a key player of the starting eleven. Gentsoglou scored his first goal for AEK against Atromitos in a 3–2 home win. The following week Gentsoglou scored the equalising goal against Kavala. On 20 May 2010, Gentsoglou signed a new four-year deal.
On 19 January 2012, Gentsoglou joined Italian Serie A side Sampdoria. Gentsoglou did not feature for Sampdoria in the 2011–12 season, and was sent out on loan the following season to Serie B squad Livorno to gain playing experience. Gentsoglou made 35 appearances for Livorno, as the side won promotion to Serie A.
