  Fergie Eyeing Greek Prodigy

  Newspaper reports indicate that Manchester United are lining up a January swoop for Kyriakos Papadopoulos, the young Olypmiakos defender...

   

  

   

  ALEX FERGUSON is ready to splash £3million in January on Greek wonderkid Kyriakos Papadopoulos. 

  Manchester United chiefs have already opened talks with the defender’s club, Olympiakos. 

  The 16-year-old centre-back became the youngest player ever in the Greek first division when he made his debut against Atromitos last December, and he has attracted interest from a number of English clubs.
  
  Chelsea, Arsenal and Nottingham Forest have all been keeping tabs on Papadopoulos, who has also attracted the attention of Greece coach Otto Rehhagel.
  
  Espanyol came close to signing the youngster after he impressed during a series of trials in 2007, but Olympiakos eventually won the race for his signature.
