DEAL ALMOST DONE! Manchester United To Poach A “Speedy Wonder kid”

Lorenzo Gonzalez, 15-year-old youngster who plays for Servett FC is reported to be an interest of Manchester United. The player has also attracted German outfit Borussia Dortmund.

As per the report from SportBild, apart from the English and the German club, AS Roma, Real Madrid and Juventus are also closely monitoring the speedy youngster. The player is a speedster and nicknamed “Speedy” after a popular cartoon character “Speedy Gonzalez”.

Another reason for interest is that the player, whose roots are not clearly explained, also holds a UK passport apart from a Swiss one. This is a plus point for Manchester United being an English club. The newspaper also compared Gonzalez to Martin Odegaard who moved to Real Madrid and made a wrong choice last transfer window. The Norwegian youngster, 17, is still looking to gain regular game time and is expected to build his career elsewhere if enough opportunities are not available in Bernabeu. The clubs seem to be in a hurry to snap up “Speedy” to beat any challenge from the rivals.
