BARCELONA SIGN A IRISH MESSI.
The Spanish giants Barcelona have signed the new prodigy from Ireland, he is called the Irish Messi, but his real name is Zack Gilshean .
Formerly the English club Tottenham Hotspurs showed interest in the little boys talent at eight years of age.But nothing did come of it though.
While the family was in Australia a former Barcelona player there spotted him and recommended this boy to Barcelona .
The boy went to Barcelona for a trial, there were formerly 400 boys from all over the world hoping to be selected by Barcelona.
The number was reduced to 70 boys and Zak was in that number .When on trial Zak scored seven goals, he went on a riot on the pitch, and was selected.
Barcelona have recently selected a Brazilian prodigy, and even a Japanese prodigy as well .
By the time Lionel Messi retires , these youngsters will take over, no need of spending like Manchester City and Chelsea. This is the advantage of having a academy.
