Jones you know anything about Youssoufa Moukoko? Everyone has been hyping him up. Dortmund fans say he is even better than Haaland at a young age.
He's been pulverising every domestic goalscoring record since he's like 11. Played for Dortmund's and Germany's U16s at 12, for their U19s at age 14, appeared and scored in UEFA Youth League (U19s) at 14 too and scored something between 1.5 to 2 goals per game in every one of his seasons. This season he was pulled up to their reserves, played in three games and scored four goals in one and hat tricks each in the other two. Dortmund motioned back in April to have the rules changed to allow him to play professional football when he turns 16 which he did yesterday.
Can't think of any player ever who had that profile at academy level, forget Haaland not even Lukaku or Messi were talked about like him. Really interested to see how he turns out because while he has a very good physique (still, he was 12 playing 16 year olds) his anticipation and finishing are what set him apart.
