Apostolos Stamatelopoulos

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

Apostolos Stamatelopoulos is an Australian striker, born on 9 April 1999 (age 27), now with Motherwell and wearing the number 9 shirt. His current market value is around £468,000, according to Transfermarkt.

His sharpest league return came with Newcastle United Jets in 2023-24, when he scored 17 goals in 25 appearances. That season remains the clear marker in his senior career: a proper striker’s campaign, rather than the usual polite promise attached to centre-forwards.

At Motherwell, he has made one Scottish Cup appearance in 2026-27, which also stands as his total appearance record for the club across all competitions. His career to this point is that of a striker who earned attention in Australia and is now trying to establish himself in Scottish football.

Stamatelopoulos has one Scottish Cup appearance for Motherwell in 2026-27, with the Premiership season still only two rounds old. The sample is too small for a firm read on his role, so his importance is still anchored more in previous scoring runs than in this season's first-team volume.

Stamatelopoulos is 27, Australian and plays as a striker for Motherwell. His career has moved through Rodos, PAS Giannina, Newcastle United Jets, Motherwell and Sydney FC, with the major scoring spike coming at Newcastle United Jets in 2023-24, when he scored 17 goals. Since then, he has added five goals in 2024-25 and eight across Motherwell and Sydney FC in 2025-26, which points to a striker whose recent value is tied to finishing output rather than long-term stability at one club.

Stamatelopoulos moved from Rodos to PAS Giannina in 2022 and from PAS Giannina to Newcastle United Jets in 2023 on free transfers, before Motherwell paid €260k for him in July 2024. The later 2026 loan to Sydney FC, followed by a June return to Motherwell, makes the Scottish move the clear fee-backed step in the sequence rather than a chain of paid upgrades.
