Apostolos Stamatelopoulos

Apostolos Stamatelopoulos of Motherwell was born on 9 April 1999 (age 27).

Apostolos Stamatelopoulos, born on 9 April 1999 (age 27), is an Australian striker with Motherwell, where he wears the No 9 shirt. Transfermarkt values him at around £468,000.

His strongest league season came with Newcastle United Jets in 2023-24, when he scored 17 goals in 25 appearances. That remains the clear production point in his career so far, and the kind of return that tends to travel better on paper than it always does in practice.

By 2026-27 he was at Motherwell, with one Scottish Cup appearance to his name for the Fir Park side. His career to this point is that of an established centre-forward who made his mark in Australia and is now trying to build something more substantial in Scottish football.
