Europe Begins to Dream: The 18-Year-Old Dynamo Drawing Madrid, United, and PSG to Circle Olympiacos
Olympiacos' rising star Mouzakitis draws Europe’s top clubs.

European clubs circle teenage Mouzakitis

A sports report reveals Real Madrid officials are closely watching Olympiacos' 18-year-old midfielder Christos Mouzakitis, who is rapidly becoming one of Europe’s most coveted talents.

According to SporTime Greece, Olympiacos has set a 40 million euro asking price for the player, while reports claim Madrid has offered 30 million euros, a figure the Greek club regards as insufficient for talks.

Despite Madrid’s interest, the race for Mouzakitis is not limited to Real Madrid; Manchester United has submitted a bid for the midfielder ahead of the January window, but it lags behind the Madrid proposal, weakening its position.

PSG joins the chase and the Golden Boy angle

Paris Saint-Germain has also joined, with Greek sources stating Louis Campos, PSG’s head of recruitment, spoke to the player during the Golden Boy 2025 ceremony after Mouzakitis won the prize, which drew nearly half a million public votes.

Greek reports note Mouzakitis, a central midfielder, leans toward wearing Real Madrid's shirt, yet Olympiacos is in no rush to sell, given a contract through 2029.

The teenager has attracted major clubs after cementing his place in the first team and delivering standout performances, notably against the Spanish capital club in the Champions League.

Punchline 1: If this move happens, his football boots will need a bigger closet than his trophy cabinet.

Punchline 2: And if United sneak in a bid, well, even their Wi‑Fi will need a transfer window to connect with the squad.
