Recently, the Daily Mail revealed that rising star of European soccer, Haralambos Kostouras, is the center of attention in the transfer market. The 17-year-old Olympiacos player, who has caught the eye of soccer giants such as Manchester United, Juventus and Bayern Munich, could command a transfer fee of up to £20 million.
Olympiacos are reportedly valuing Kostouras quite highly, not only for his ability, but also for his adherence to the market strategy. Just this week, Manchester United entered the fray, closely observing the starlet's movements and considering a bid.
Kosturas is seen as a future star of European soccer and his talent has attracted a number of giants in the chase. Clubs such as Juventus and Bayern Munich are eager to take him under their wings. But faced with high transfer fees, these clubs must weigh the pros and cons and make a choice.
It's also worth noting that the high price offered by Olympiakos is in an effort to set their own team's all-time transfer record. Currently, that record is held by Wolves' £17 million in 2019 when they signed Bodensee. If Kostouras' transfer fee breaks that record, Olympiacos will be looking to set another record in the transfer market.
It is an honor for Kosturas to be in the running for the big boys, but he will have to choose carefully and pick a club where he can lay the foundation for his career. Regardless of where he ends up, Kosturas will be a shining star in European soccer, and we look forward to seeing him shine in the games to come.
