Manchester United are reportedly scouting Olympiacos’ young striker Charalampos Kostoulas ahead of the January transfer window.

Kostoulas is seen as the next significant talent from Greece following his impressive performances for the Under-19 side last season and promotion to the first team this year.

The 17-year-old’s contributions have not gone unnoticed, with United registering their interest last week, according to The Sun.

The Red Devils sent scouts to observe Kostoulas during Olympiacos’ 0-0 draw with Twente in the Europa League last Thursday.

They will face competition to secure the teenager, with local media reporting that Bayern Munich, Juventus, Fiorentina, and Borussia Monchengladbach are also monitoring the player.

It’s noted that all those clubs, except Bayern, have sent representatives to watch the Greece Under-21 international.

Kostoulas excelled during the stalemate with Twente, even winning a penalty that Ayoub El Kaabi missed.

He has scored two goals and provided one assist in ten appearances this season, with those close to him wanting him to enjoy the off-season without distractions.

Kostoulas is versatile, able to play through the middle, on both flanks or behind the striker.

He was part of the Olympiacos team that won the UEFA Youth League last season after defeating AC Milan 3-0 in the final.

The youngster scored five goals and registered two assists in eight games in the competition.

A transfer to United would see him become the latest young striker to join the club, following Rasmus Hojlund, Joshua Zirkzee, and Chido Obi-Martin, all moving to Old Trafford in the past 18 months.
