Who says watching YouTube videos all day is a worthless pursuit?

For Manchester United, YouTube became a treasure chest of future talent when a four-minute video of a 9-year old footballer was posted on the site by his proud granddad. No doubt you’ve heard that Man Utd. have since signed the little, twinkle-toed whipper-snapper [a.k.a. Rhain Davis] to its academy and there’s lots of ‘the next Ronaldinho’ talk knocking about.

Man Utd were sent a DVD of him playing, it was only after he was invited to join them, that a fan put that video on Youtube.

So watching Youtube did not become a treasure chest for Man Utd.

Looks a promising little player, needs to be less greedy with the ball but that will come as he gets older and has more experience.
Some nice foot work too ;)
