Christos Tzolis: Man United intensify chase for Club Brugge wizard | OneFootball

Manchester United are stepping up their interest in Club Brugge’s flying winger Christos Tzolis.

Recently, The Peoples Person relayed a report claiming United have made enquiries about Tzolis, who is “whirling through” the Jupiler Pro League, beating teams on his own week by week.

However, the Red Devils face strong competition for his services from their Premier League rivals.

According to TEAMtalk, Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea have all intensified their interest in Greek star Christos Tzolis.

Tzolis, who has had experience of English football with Norwich City, has enjoyed a meteoric rise in Belgium, impressing with his quick feet and sharp vision in the final third.

Tzolis has amassed an incredible 27 assists in 50 appearances across all competitions this campaign. To put that in perspective, United maestro Bruno Fernandes has registered 22 assists during the same period. 

The report states that the Greek left-winger has firmly established himself as “one of the most dangerous and creative forwards currently operating outside Europe’s traditional elite leagues.”

TEAMtalk claims Arsenal, Chelsea and United all had representatives in attendance over the weekend to watch Tzolis against Union Saint-Gilloise. The 24-year-old was directly involved in four of his side’s five unanswered goals in the emphatic victory.

Club Brugge are reportedly “increasingly expecting” their best attacker to leave this summer amid growing interest. However, Brugge would demand a fee that would surpass the current Belgian transfer record.

That record is held by Charles De Ketelaere, who left Brugge for AC Milan in a £32.5 million deal four years ago.

It is understood United are exploring multiple attacking reinforcements and Tzolis’s “creativity, directness and productivity have attracted significant admiration internally.”

The Greece international allegedly feels he is fully ready for another opportunity in English football.
