love cfc 0 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 After yesterday intimating that Chelsea re tracking an eighteen year-old Brazilian left back, Thiago Carleto, we`re now being linked to another eighteen year old. His name is Jozy Altidore and he`s currently playing in the MSL for New York Red Bulls. So far the young striker has scored thirteen goals in thirty-three appearances and his exploits have caught our eyes and also interested Manchester City. Altidor is of Haitian descent but plays for the USA at international level. For the US you-17`s he`s scored nineteen goals in twenty-five games and is being tipped to become a bigger star than the much acclaimed Freddy Adu. We`ll endeavour to keep you informed of any developments on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
