This article is interesting even if premature. Any thoughts?

PARANÁ, Jan 26 (SW) - The Argentinian newspapar Clarín has published a video which shows an extremely talented nine year old player of the Brazilian team ADAP in the town of Paraná.

Jean Carlos Chera currently weighs 35 kilograms and is 1,37 meter tall, and is already a key target for European top clubs FC Porto and Manchester United, who both want the youngster's entire family to move to Europe.

Chera, who plays football under the name Anderson, shares the field with players four years older than he is, and manages to surprise all spectators with his actions. ADAP chairman Adilson Batista Prado commented: "He's phenomenal, I've never seen anything like this before. He keeps on surprising. Everybody who sees him play is fascinated."

The video can still be seen here, but Clarín's webmaster has already announced to take the link down soon, in order to avoid a site-crash.

Moving to Europe now would be a TERRIBLE mistake for this kid. Chera needs technical guidance in an environment where his childhood can be preserved, and moving to a foreign country with "child-prodigy" status is definitely NOT the way to do it.

On the domestic front, Santos and Corinthians are already trying to recruit Jean Carlos Chera to their youth divisions – which would be the best alternative at this stage.

Man, I saw this kid on the Globo Esporte, man, this kid is unbeliavable....

The kid is 9 years old, and by the age of 13, he'll be playing in one of Brazil's top teams...

It's amazing seeing what that kid can do, I myself wouldn't want to get embarrased by that kid, because I know I would

Thanks again

Moving to Portugal won't hurt him as much as moving over to England.

i heard about this kid on an article, and the article mentioned that his team's website had to pull out the links to see his highlights because of system crashes or something like that.. anyways, does anybody know where i can see clips of him?
