Barca, Bayern, Real M - you name it - are all after him. His father told in a very recent interview that he will choose "wisely" where his son will go next - and hinted at Ajax. But who knows when real money are being offered by clubs like Chelski, ManC etc.
The next John CarewHow come his name doesn't have ''The Next'' prefix yet
How much do you think he's valued at? Looks pretty good to me.
Thank God no. Obviously they're completely different players as well but Carew had all the potential and skill to become one of the absolute best strikers in the world, but fell out of love with the game (his own admission) at 21, got sucked in to the celebrity lifestyle and pissed it away. That he was able to have as good a career as he had at Valencia, Lyon and Villa just shows what a fantastic talent he was, he was that good even if he didn't care.The next John Carew

This could be a good test for our academy, we should see if we can get him to move to us to get his football education. With our facilities and youth setup we should be looking to take the place of clubs like Ajax and get players like this to sign up early.
@Toela65 Yes it might be optimistic but what's the point in building an accademy and training center as good as we have and then not trying to bring in the best kids from that age group to compliment the ones we already have?
As a Norwegian, I feel obligated to post this. He's only 15, but he is allready dominating the Norwegian league, and is followed by all the major clubs in Europe. I think the video shows why.
I vaguely recall Jon Obi Mikel being the next big thing at 15.
