Supporters of Wolverhampton Wanderers have reacted to a transfer report stating that a number of top European clubs are keeping tabs on Owen Otasowie.
According to the Telegraph, Juventus, Real Madrid and Paris Saint Germain are all keeping their eye on the Old Gold’s youngster with a view to making a transfer swoop (via Talking Wolves).
With the American hotly rated by the Molineux backroom staff, supporters were keen to see the midlands club keep a tight grip on the 18-year-old.

From what I’ve seen of him so far I think he should get a few more starts or be sub’d on more for us over the xmas period looks a hand full

Where would Owen Otasowie's development be served best?WolvesJuventusReal MadridPSG |
The youngster made his debut under Nuno Espirito Santo in recent weeks, featuring for a 17-minute cameo in the recent 4-0 Europa League victory over Besiktas (as per Transfermarkt).
Otasowie has also been stationed on the first-team bench for one Premier League clash, the recent 1-1 draw with Sheffield United (as per Transfermarkt).
Out of contract in the summer…

Hope for his sake they haven’t been watching today, lol. He’s been absolutely awful.

Hands off. He’s going to be a hell of a player

And you know whoever signs him (although I hope we keep him) willl convince him to play for USA looks a good player from what I’ve seen but I imagine half the interest is about marketing. pic.twitter.com/VGRgd2TkKG

What do we think?
The three clubs touted to be interested in the 18-year-old are certainly gargantuan names and would doubtlessly turn Otasowie’s head should they come calling officially.
However, he is starting to get game time with the first team under Nuno and he will have to contemplate where his development would be best served.
