Manchester United have won the race to sign Irish boy wonder Rob
Brady, the latest 'new George Best'.
The 15-year-old was being chased by the majority of the Premier
League and his dad was even schmoozed at the Champions League final
by Liverpool and FA Cup final by Chelsea last season.
But Brady will join Sir Alex Ferguson's academy kids when he turns
16 in January, in what is said to be a lucrative deal.
Meanwhile, Liverpool are trying to pinch Burnley's 14-year-old
sensation John Cofie from under Fergie's nose.
United were expecting to tie up one of the most exciting talents
around for about £1m.
But Liverpool hope to pull off a major coup for the young striker -
because his family are all mad Kopites.
Chelsea have also made an offer but their scouts have been banned
from Burnley home youth games to stop them seeing too much of the
kid in action.
