The next big thing?

[Seemann]

Just seen the second half of Sweden-Chile. The final score was 1-1, but Chile was brilliant and a young winger stood out. 17-year-old Alexis Sanchez really gave a good show of his dribling skills and there were even some new ones that look like they should be in the great book of Ronaldinho.

Anyway, after Aguero switched to A. Madrid this migth be the next big teenage hit?

This was the first I`ve ever heard or seen of the kid, so can`t say if it was just a one off? Anyone know more about this young lad?

Sad thing is there probably isn`t a chance in hell that we are after him or that he would get anyway near a workpermit.

Chile have played 3 games recently. Draw against both Sweden and Ivory Coast, and a win against Ireland. Maybe there is more quality there than Gonzalez?

Already signed for Udinese in Italy I think for 2 million Euro. Plays for Cobrolea in Chile and is rated as their best player even is he is only 17 years old. He has been in their first team for about a year already.

As I understand it he has played 10 games this season and scored 6 goals. He turns 18 December the 19th.

It seems that Villarreal and Real Madrid also tried to sign him.
