I'm assuming he's not a centre midfielder just for the fact that we're signing him.
Can file this under the Varela 'does not count' category but is he any good?
Who?
Is he a left back by any chance?
Sort of related but didn't we sign some bang average defender from City a couple of years back? I think he was here for 6 months then left

Frederic Veseli. He joined for 6 months then got a further 1 year contract. Left this summer and joined Ipswich
An attacking midfielder apparently
How old is the fella and what position does he play?
16-year-old lad. Left-footed attacking mid.
I am gonna snapchat him a picture of my junk.
Dont get excited, he will turn out to be a wonder kid in a couple of years and then we'll give him away to another club.
Very much doubt it.
He'll probably be about Veseli's level, another who left on a free from City. Not too many good players do that
Apparently rejected a scholarship deal with City and left them as a free agent.
he's just confirmed it on his twitter. So unless he's lying, City wanted him to stay
Why not? City are trying to develop this Etihad campus thingey, but United are still the club with a proven track record of bringing youngsters through.
For any young player it should be a no brainer.
A quote from Crewe's Dario Gradi for some perspective on City's academy:
He has deleted a few of his tweets. In one he mentioned having a nice chat with Ando and Rio.
I really like it if he refused them to join us 
Fernando rhymes with Ronaldo. It's so fecking on.
Honestly why would you want to go to Citehs academy when there is absolutely no chance you will get into the first team squad.
Does anyone know if Andy Coles son is a decent player?
Always like it when they refuse City for United.
A little fella called Ryan Giggs did it once, and look how he turned out

He does look quite talented and in the Silva mould to be honest. Anyone know if he's played internationally for any youth teams? As it looks like he can pick either Portugal or Brazil
Like his name. On that basis alone, I'm all for this signing!
Was posted on bluemoon. They talked about him being impatient, being banned from using twitter for a while too. Moved around a fair bit already, Sporting to Spurs, Flamengo, City and now United
If he turns out a quarter of the player it will be worth it,Always like it when they refuse City for United.

Been training at Carrington with the youth team.....
Seems to be a bit of a Guido judging by his Twitter account. Do not want.
It's not a done yet is it?
What's a 'Guido'?
Also, isn't he like 15? Surely being whatever a Guido actually is at 15 should not be held against someone.
Apparently I means "lower-class or working-class urban Italian American."
Erm, why would anyone have an issue with that?

I was actually familiar with that expression - although I just thought that couldn't possbly be what he has a problem with.
First of all, it was a joke 
S
econd of all, Guido's are not just working-class urban Italian Americans.
These are Guido's:
Just noticed that he makes pouting faces on almost all his pictures, a typical 'Guido-trademark'.

Whatever about anything else, he's a sound lad on snapchat. Regularly snaps me and replies to stuff. Sent me a quick snap of inside Carrington yesterday, don't know if he should be doing that though!
Did you get any transfer gossip from him?
