AC Milan sensation Kostiuk has scored 800 goals for the U12 side

Who is AC Milan youngster Andrea Kostiuk?

Following the widely reported and viral ascent of Francesco Camarda, a different striker in AC Milan‘s youth system is starting to draw significant attention.

The Instagram feed Il Bello del Calcio, which showcases Italy’s up-and-coming talent, claims that Andrea Kostiuk is a name to remember. His performance with the youth teams demonstrates precisely why.

We must begin with the fact that he is an Italian-Ukrainian player for the U12 team, and it goes without saying that his idol is the legendary Andriy Shevchenko of AC Milan.

According to the page, he has scored 238 goals in 41 games this season, or 5.8 goals per game on average. Although there are far more goals scored in games at this level overall, 238 goals is still a very high total.

In the videos they upload, a 12-year-old is shown setting his own goals and being able to finish in any way. He has also continued to progress; in the last three years, he has about 800 goals and over 230 assists.

To put it briefly, the picture of him that was released with Shevchenko is a dead giveaway that Andrea wants to be just like him and that, in a tiny sense, he is already achieving in comparison to other people his age.

The page includes: “Finishing, technique, physique, control, positioning, heading. Nothing is missing. And above all, he is devastating with both feet. Right-footed, left-footed and teamwork, a rare commodity for a 12-year-old striker.

“Bomber instinct. A new Kiev Nightingale could fly over San Siro in the future, dreaming of following in Sheva’s footsteps.”
