Just what we need.... The new wonderkid

Arsenal nab Galindo

Arsenal have stepped in to sign Bolivian "wonderkid" Samuel Galindo after the 17 year-old left a trial with Everton without a deal being agreed to bring him to Goodison, according to The Mirror.

The Blues either couldn't agree terms or decided not to take up the option to sign the Bolivian U-21 captain and Arsene Wenger picked him up after watching him train with the Gunners.

Assuming a work permit can be agreed — Arsenal will need to make a case based on his talent — he will cost £500,000.

Another Kid Hope He's Good Enough.

Why not? It's called 'business'.

If we can find ONE Fabregas in every TWENTY of these 'kids', it will be huge achievement.

Although part of me says "ugh another kid", I definitely also see where Deano is coming from. You have to imagine that before the age of fourms and blogs, this same stuff was going on, we just didn't hear about all these "wunderkids" the way we do now. I'm sure we went through many, many kids to finally unearth Fabregas.

As Deano said, it important to keep the club ticking over and bringing in fresh talent all the time. Its not like he will be signed to fill in the first team, he will be signed to be used in years to come.
