Freddy Adu ( Kid Sensation)

Have any of you heard of the 15 year old kid from Ghana name Freddy Adu ? He plays for D.C. United. They are comparing this kid to Pele. At 15 he has a 3 million dollar contract and a 1 million dollar Nike deal. Has anyone seen this kid play ?

Sensation Kid Adu Freddy

I have seen him play a couple games. He is very gifted but far from being compared to Pele, at least not yet. The very first MLS game he played, he was noticeably timid, and justly so, but he has grown up very fast in the league, and is doing well. It will be interesting watching him grow as a person and a footballer, because he does have the potential to become a great player. However, he will definitely need to go to Europe to realize his true potential, I dont think the MLS is the place for him.
