Manchester City have reportedly won the battle to secure the signature of Malaga wonder kid Brahim Abdelkader Diaz dubbed ‘the new Lionel Messi’ after videos of his skill on the ball emerged across Europe.
The 14-year old was coveted by Barcelona but figures of up to £3m have been touted as the sum that has secured the services of an upcoming talent that could boost City’s squad in the next decade.
