Got it from here

Manchester United are close to agreeing a £6m deal with Brazilian club Cruzeiro to sign teenage star Kerlon Moura Souza. (The Times)

Taken from Wikipedia

K.M. Souza is known for his "seal dribble" which is the ability to flick the ball up onto his head and run with it during matches which makes it very hard for the defending team to challenge legally!

Sounds interesting.

Do we really need another player who goes down like a fairy and doesn't supply an end product?

lol.. cant wait to see him get put on the sidelines for 7month for faffing about doing a "seal"

judging from that video... we are all going to have some laughs next season

Ripper · 18 May 2006 at 15:39

ronaldo and kerlon on each wing..... at least i'll get my moneys worth at ot

jesta · 18 May 2006 at 15:40

im like abit of showboating from players so im kind of looking forward to him coming to united(if its true). apparantly he's the new ronaldinho :confused:

i hate it when they say its the new whoever even thought that player they suppose to be is still fairly young.

Dtab · 18 May 2006 at 15:41

lemonkettaz · 18 May 2006 at 15:42

everyday a new player gets shoved about saying.. omg the next pele.

will this kerlon do wonders at man utd.. or be sold off in a few seasons for not really performing

I was thinking exact same thing, lol

Mr_L · 18 May 2006 at 15:47

Well the kid's got skill. I'll wait to see if Man U sign him and he plays before slagging him off.

Ripper · 18 May 2006 at 15:47

to be fair he looks like a completely different player to kleberson, more in the juninho mould

Indeed

TBH who can't in the footy world run while heading the ball? There just not that stupid to try on this stage...

What about the Japanese guy who does al the flick up's etc? Will Fergie buy him next?!

Kerlon is absolutely awesome on Football Manager 2006, although saying that it takes a few years for him to get really good. He's still very young and will be a superb prospect for the future.
