EXCLUSIVE: Metalist Kharkiv table bid for Ghanaian teenager Douglas Owusu
· GhanaSoccernetUkrainian Premier League side FC Metalist 1925 Kharkiv have submitted an enticing offer for Ghanaian youngster Douglas Owusu, GHANAsoccernet.com can exclusively report.
The 19-year-old winger, who has been one of the brightest revelations in the Serbian Superliga this season, continues to attract strong interest across Europe following his impressive performances for FK Radnik Surdulica.
GHANAsoccernet.com understands that Radnik have rejected the opening bid, insisting on a club record fee before they agree to part ways with the talented teenager.
Club officials are confident Owusu’s value will rise further, given his form, potential, and the growing list of suitors monitoring his progress.
Owusu has been in scintillating form this season, cementing his place in the starting lineup and contributing goals and assists with his pace and creativity on the flanks.
His performances have not only drawn attention from Metalist but also from Swiss giants BSC Young Boys and Norwegian side Bodo Glimt, who have been tracking him closely in recent weeks.
Radnik view Owusu as their next major export, following the successful transfers of Igor Zlatanovic, Milan Makaric, and Uros Milovanovic in previous seasons.
If the deal materialises, Owusu could become the latest Ghanaian prospect to make the leap from Serbia’s top flight to mainstream European football - a testament to his rapid rise and undeniable potential.
