The brilliance of Babis Kostoulas has gone beyond the Greek borders, with the Italian website “Tuttomercatoweb” making an extensive tribute to the 17-year-old Olympiakos forward and playfully comparing him to Karim Benzema.
Babis Kostoulas made history in Toumba as he found the way to the net against PAOK and became the youngest scorer in the history of Olympiakos in a league match, with the 17-year-old forward not only impressing the fans of the red and whites, but also many people outside of Greece territory.
The tribute paid to him by the “Tuttomercatoweb.com“, with the Italian website presenting him as the “talent of the day” last Saturday (16/11) and describing him as a player-revelation of Greek football, even comparing him, in terms of his style of play, with Karim Benzema.
“The revelation of Greek football Charalambos Kostoulas, at the age of just 17, is establishing himself as one of the most promising Greek talents. With Olympiakos U19 he scored 5 goals in 2 matches, while with the Greek National U21 he scored 2 goals in as many appearances.
He recently made his debut in the Olympiakos first team and became the third youngest player in the club’s history to start a match. In addition, he scored a crucial goal against PAOK and became the youngest league scorer in the history of Olympiakos.
With a very interesting centre-forward profile, Kostoula’s future looks extremely promising. Gifted, with excellent instincts and movement without the ball, he excels at finishing with both feet and offers a range of skills in the air.
His attributes include a combination of physical strength, speed and ball control that allow him to play with his back to goal and work effectively with his teammates.
Considered one of the most promising young Greeks, his style of play is reminiscent of footballers such as Karim Benzema.” characteristically mentions the Italian publication about Babi Kostoula.
