The career of Copenhagen's young starlet Roony Bardghji could be set to take off after his spectacular cameo against Manchester United in the Champions League last Wednesday. The seventeen-year-old scored his side’s late winner in the 87th minute, smashing the ball past Andre Onana and making him the youngest player to score against United in the Champions League, as well as the second-youngest scorer against an English side in Europe.
These impressive stats have alerted a number of clubs, including French giants Nice, who are reportedly ready to make a January move for the youngster. The Sun has reported that Nice’s owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe is hoping to get ahead of competition from Newcastle, Crystal Palace, and Chelsea, who have previously shown ‘crazy’ interest in the player.
Bardghji’s future is reliant on Copenhagen’s performance in the Champions League, as they need to finish either second or third in their group to keep him for the remainder of the European campaign. The Dane is already on impressive form, with seven goals in 14 appearances in the league, and has even been tipped to earn a place in the Swedish national team, although he was not included in the latest squad.
When he turns 18 on November 15th, Bardghji will be able to sign a professional contract with Copenhagen – or potentially make a move to the Premier League. The Danish side are looking to cash in on him, and are likely to demand a fee of over 100million kroner, although this could be increased with further impressive displays from the young winger.
