===Second spell at Rouvas===
Roubakis found himself a [[free agent]] yet again, and during the summer transfer period of 2013 he was rumored to join a number of clubs, but instead he decided to return to [[Rouvas FC|Rouvas]] one year after his departure.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.patris.gr/articles/247012/#.V9_8XR-YFD8 | title=Γ’ ΕΘΝΙΚΗ - Γύρισε στον Ρούβα ο Ρουμπάκης | work=Patris | date=16 August 2013 | accessdate=19 September 2016 | trans_title=Gamma Ethniki: Roubakis returns to Rouvas}}</ref> The previous year Rouvas had come from a successfull [[Football League 2 (Greece)|Football League 2]] campaign and expectations for this season were high
