Manchester City look set to take 15-year-old Jose Angel Pozo
Manchester City are on the brink of snapping up one of the most exciting prospects in European football - 15-year-old Real Madrid striker Jose Angel Pozo, the Daily Mail reported.
Pozo is very highly rated at Real but has been swayed by considerably better wages at City and the promise of reserve team football next year.
City could have signed him for free as he does not have a professional contract with Real but have instead chosen to pay the Spanish club around Ј100,000 compensation as a gesture of goodwill.
Chelsea and Liverpool had also been interested in Pozo, who scored 34 goals for Real’s youth team last season but City moved quickly following the recommendation of football development executive Patrick Vieira.
