It is common to see the increasing habit of tagging young and upcoming players as the “new so-and-so”. But, what is not so common is to see the player deserved of the tag. So, when such a player comes along with the tag of the “New Cristiano Ronaldo“, it is more than obvious that people will sit up and take notice. Enter Alvaro Vadillo: a prodigiously talented winger from Real Betis. Possessing blistering pace and tricky feet, Vadillo is much more composed than the 18-year old sulky teenager who joined Manchester United from Sporting Lisbon in 2003. He still has much development to undergo, being only 19 years old. Moyes is a manger who has consistently shown his faith in young players, and would relish the chance to have the Spanish youngster.
