"Freddy Adu"

Hes only 14 and he gets more money from nike than any other sports player. When he was 11 inter wanted to sign him, but currently he looks to sign for manchester united. Anyone heard of em? Coz hes better than Rooney right now

Yeh, Fergie's been after him for a while, he's the next big thing and currently plays as a striker in the USA being originally of Gambian origin.

I believe he favours a move to Real Madrid, but im sure Chelsea are also after him and we all know that they will shower him with gifts but I hope United hang in there for him.

Well 2 of last sunday's papers supposedly had an interview from Adu saying he wanted to play in England and for Man United but then another paper stated that Chelsea were leading the hunt for him. I really do hope United sign him because this kid is awesome and is definitly one for the future as long as he stays on track.

Well, if i were Adu, i'd want to move to Real.

The Weather in England is just too shockingly bad!

That's what I meant... ;-)

Have seen him play a few times now and looks impressive for his age but not sure how well he would be against world class players as the MLS dosn't match the premiership or spanish leagues.

Definately one to watch though...

Never heard of him, but he must be good If Man United and Real are after him.

No matter how good he is, I don't like him already! :P

He's ONLY 14, yet people are ranting-and-raving about him like they do with Wayne Rooney - who's still 4-years-older than Adu.

It's bloody rediculous!!

By the time he DOES sign for a European club, and make his first-team debut, he may well be bigger - and earning more - than David Beckham is now!!


I hope everyone can just forget about him now, and give him time to develop without ruining his career before it's even started....
But I doubt that'd ever happen!

O, sign a 14 year old, who already is inflated in Nkie sponsorship deals, and watch his ego burst! Too young, too much money, too much pressure...........

Greaaat...
