News breaking on the wire reports that AC Milan have followed in the footsteps of Manchester United and delved into the children’s market to sign their latest talent, capturing 9-year-old Mexican wunderkid Edgardo “Gato” Obregon.

Much like United’s Rhain Davis, Edgardo Obregon has already been earmarked for big things in football. Having been groomed at Chivas de Guardalajara and Barcelona, the Rossoneri have allegedly offered Obergon a place at the Milan academy, as Milan hope to develop and polish Obergon’s hugh potential.

Obregon, whose favourite players include Lionel Messi and Ronaldinho, has so far enjoyed his football as an attacking midfielder. And the 9-year-old has already made quite an impression showing off his range of dribbling, passing and shooting skills bringing him to the attention of Europe’s elite.
