The new Zidane

Jean Carlos Chera. Remember the name. I hope Liverpool sign this boy - forget your Lampards and Gerrards - this lad's going to be the real deal. Apparently, Man Utd have already requested video footage of his matches - and he's only 9 years old! Some highlights of him at 6 years of age, playing against 13/14 year olds:…

reminds me a bit more like Robben than Zidane...as he gets older he looks like he'd be better suited to the wing than central midfield

He'll be burned out by the time he reaches his teens if all this publicity is anything to go by.

hes only 9 lads, give him a chance to develop before comparing him to anyone. Its sickening that clubs like Utd want him for such a young kid.His goals are class by the way!! As someone said in a previous post regarding this kid, it depends whats he like when hes 15 that counts but so far so good.

I was only joking about the Zidane thing., just wanted to draw attention to his skill. You're dead right - he's only 9, a bit optimistic to be comparing him to anybody at this stage of his life.

If he improves - rather than burn out - as he gets older, he'll be one of the richest sportsmen of his time. Right now, he needs to stay in Brazil and concentrate on being a kid...

Looks good. Pity the music in the video is so camp.
