United snapped up a 5 year-old City fan by the name of Charlie Jackson this week, whom they have been scouting since the age of 3 (fuckin ridiculous I know, but that's footy). It is obvious the extreme talent this nipper has, but I hate the fact that these kids are signed so damn young; take Dutch club VVV- Venlo for instance, who signed a one-year old back in April. Outside of this, I love this story, because anything to throw any kind of salt in the wounds of City fans, brings a smile to my face to say the least. Charlie Jackson's father simply put: "His idols are Joe Hart and Mario Balotelli and at first glance he was mortified at training with United. He didn't want to go." If his family were that big of City supporters, believe me this kid wouldn't be wearing red. #Champ19ns.
Hopefully in about the year 2025, he can shove it up City's ass, for not giving him a good enough look at the age of 5. Check this kids crazy skills below.
