Karamoko Dembelle Footballing Prodigy?

[Neiler]

13 year old kid playing for Celtic Karamoko Dembele, he's already played for the U20 team.

Being bigged up as the brightest young prospect in world football and already been scouted by Barca, Real, Bayern and the PL clubs.

The SFA and FA are currently in a battle for his international allegiance, he also qualifies for the Ivory Coast. Born in London, moved to Glasgow aged five.

Recently called up for both the Scottish and English under age set ups - he's playing it cool like huggy bear though and not making a call either way.

He's no Alif Solpro.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Meh. Got a few tricks and he could easily stagnate before maturity. Plus youtube videos are supposed to make you look good, this shows little end product and cuts out of plays where he must have done something poor. If he was called Aiden McGeady no one would care.

He's probably 23

Remember Freddy Adu being hailed as the new 'Pele' at a young age, ended up just being a journeyman.

I'd say it shows the paucity of developing talent in Scotland.

Was going to say this.

wow he is good at 13? So was baxter / Green / Adu to name a few off the top of my head. What happens to the lad when he doesn't hit a growth spurt for arguments sake and stays like 5 foot 2? What happens if he doesn't physically develop in line with most other youngsters? What happens when too much is put on him at a young age, or he is played too much at 16/17?

Sometimes it is better to not be discovered as a wonder kids until you are a little bit older.

Schoolboy defending. One footed. No end product. Swerve.

 

[TrixyStevens]

A close source has told me he is going to be the new Regi Blinker.
