- The Best 14-years-old footballer - 'AMERICAN MESSI' - CAVAN SULLIVAN simply will blow your mind!
He's only 14, but he's already being dubbed "the new Lionel Messi" and is wanted by all the academies of Europe's biggest clubs! Meet Cavan Sullivan, the new American football star, who is set to be signed by Manchester City this summer!
Today, we've decided to find out how good this kid is and why he's named "the best 14-year-old in the world." Click on the like button, give us a subscribe and let's get into it!
Who is Cavan Sullivan?
Cavan Sullivan was born in 2009 in Philadelphia. In fact, soccer runs in his whole family’s blood! His father Brendan played professionally in the Australian A-League and then became a coach. His mother was the captain of the women's team at the University of Pennsylvania. Quinn, Cavan's older brother, is playing for Philadelphia Union and the USMNT U20 squad, while Ronan and Declan, 15-year-old twin brothers, are also showing great potential in the club's academy.
Despite his young age, it is 14-year-old Cavan, who is performing ahead of schedule for the Philadelphia U17 team, demonstrating the most skills, as well as the willingness to move to the highest competitive levels possible! "The new Leo Messi", Marca newspaper boldly declares!
Sullivan can play as an attacking midfielder, though he can also be used as a false nine or left-winger. He has a great left foot, an extremely good vision, understanding of the game, and a fantastic sense of the goal. The prospect displays a classy sharp dribbling with technique often unforeseen by opponents and which one would want to savor in slow-motion. And the main thing is that he already has plenty of experience!
The first glimpses of fame fell on Cavan during the Generation Adidas Cup 2023. Having participated in the tournament at the age of 13, Sullivan, despite being two years younger than everyone else on the pitch, was ripping apart his opponents from the U15 age group, thus helping Philadelphia to play a draw with Valencia and beat Arsenal and Real Madrid!
That same year, the kid had managed to shine brightly on the international stage too. He showed the full range of his skills right at the first training session with the USMNT U15 squad and quickly let his teammates know who they are dealing with! Soon after, Sullivan led his team to the victory in the Concacaf Under-15 Championship, bagging three goals in the competition and providing two assists in the final against Mexico, not to mention winning the "Golden Ball" as the best player of the tournament and being included in its best starting XI !
Since then, the talent has been nicknamed "Captain America", at which point Salivan's accomplishments have drawn the attention of scouts from Europe's elite clubs - Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund! Besides, Cavan is now being featured in the reports of transfer insights guru, Fabrizio Romano, which is also worth a lot!
However, the 14-year-old prodigy is not complacent about his success, while continuing to work hard in the U17 team, an attitude that is highly appreciated by his coaches.
Philadelphia Union manager Jim Curtin notes:
"For those that maybe haven't learned yet, a young Cavan Sullivan has the talent and ability to become, I'll just say a household name, and is doing really big things."
Meanwhile, Marlon LeBlanc, Head Coach of Philadelphia Union II, agrees:
«Cavan is a fantastic young talent, dare I tease him that I've never seen a kid develop as much as I've seen Cavan. He’s got his feet on the ground, all this extra hype about him. It doesn’t go to his head and I think that’s the fantastic thing about him. It’s what also allows him to come into our environment and still be cool and be bold».
Philadelphia are trying to keep Sullivan with all their might and, according to The Athletic, they had recently made him the "best homegrown offer ever extended." However, it looks like the talented American youngster will still leave soon, with Manchester City expected to become his next career stop. Recent media reports suggest that the City Football Group sports holding company will take Cavan from Philadelphia and fully invest in his development. So now we are going to reveal the details of their plan!
Manchester City's plans for Sullivan
"Cavan Sullivan will have many choices for his next endeavor professionally but Man City scouts believe he is the 'best 14 yr old in the world'... and they aren't exaggerating," wrote former USMNT representative and current MLS Apple TV analyst Taylor Twellman on March 15.
“Manchester City are closing in on deal to sign American wonderkid Cavan Sullivan, deal agreed! 2009 born talent set to join #MCFC in the next years from Ph. Union despite Real, BVB, Bayern interest. Here we go, soon," says the reliable Fabrizio Romano. - Спорт
Messi is a Once in a lifetime player! there be another like him
Why do u call everyone the new messi he's not really like him and your just putting more pressure on him
Agreed, it's annoying.
Bro you told the Truth because there is no one who can be like Messi
@@AhmedMohamudMohamed-xq9zc Yeah pretty much lol
Facts
Shit up
I Think many people forget Freddy Adu And many who at a Young Age was Hype by the Media and was Burn by the time they was in their 20’s
Nobody will ever be the "the new Messi" .
That's what they used to say about Maradona
@@didier_777and pele
Maybe next Freddy Edu.
@@jimmylam9846 Pele is dead
@@jimmylam9846 This kid is good he's already playing with the first and second teams.
They’re going to ruin this young man with insane hype like comparing him to Messi. Let him develop into the best player he can be.
You cannot call anyone Lionel, Messi. It’s so ridiculous that you can compare anybody. Messi is the greatest in this generation. He’s not just the greatest in the world but off the generation. There’s a big difference. If you don’t know anything about football dump post things like this.
bro Messi is so good but bro cuz u are fan of Messi doesn't change the fact that can have better player than him
@@7GeorgiZZBro what 💀
@@7GeorgiZZNobody said anything about the names. It’s just that No wonder kid will make Messi’s level that’s all.
@@thereaper2189 bro if u have the talent why not
Atp everyone is Messi to you
swr down. Bro not every talented attacker is "the new messi"
If your in the USA you gotta give this kid his props he's balling 👍🏽⚽
It’s good to see this!
Fred Adu, anyone? Seriously MCFC is calling this kid the next Messi? If there is anything that could weight a talent down, it would be this. The crazy amount of hype from the US is just insane.
Why can't they just let this boy grow into his game mentally, physically and in soccer skills and intelligence.. If anyone had watched a real Messi growing into his game, it would be Guardiola and you can bet your bottom dollar that he wouldn't be calling an American 14year old a future Messi.
Freddy was 25 when they said he was 14 though
They should never place a label like this on a kid. Its not fair to him. Messi is very good, the GOAT but he also was very lucky not to get injured most of his career. Its very hard to repeat a career like his when there are many factors this kid will not be in control of. No one knows if he will be the next Messi, even if he has the talent and skills to be compared to him at a young age. It takes lots of luck to have a 30 year career like Messi. This kid can get injured and never come close to accomplishing what Messi has. They should never place any labels on kids this young.
He’ll be like Freddy Adu
Adu was too short
Loved his work in Florida ….. The Golden Spike
the moment you start calling or comparing someone after someone else you have lost that person forever..... STOP putting this kids on such a spot light, let them Become the Sullivan, let them build their own brand, stop comparing them to unicorns so that they can become their own unicorn
always hard to tell until they're done growing physically.
Let this amazing player be himself these title only hurt new players on the way up.
eh stop naming kids next Messi lmao. But he is good tho. Has generational talent potential, depends on how his associates handle his career. Man city, Ajax, Benfica, all these academies would be perfect for his development
Ive heard this so many times😂
Look up what age was Messi debuted for FC Barcelona about 20 years ago....
If he can score just as well as playmake at the highest level then he’ll be like Messi
He's far more skilled at 14 than Messi was so there's that.
@@dherman0001 no he’s not so there’s also that
Let the kid be Cavan Sullivan. Let him find his own thing. Fucking Media is this kid is the new Messi, new Ronaldo, new whoever. Find something else to write about or at least write about it better. Stop comparing kids with stars and maybe talk about their strengths as a youth. stop comparing
You really cant count on young talents until they go through puberty. Kids change attitude changes and priorities change. Hopefully he continue to grow and develop but hold on ppl for few more years.
Imagine him being selected for the world cup 2026 as a 17 or 18 yr old
It has begun
The way he plays , you can maybe say dybala or griezmann
Why there's no New Cristiano Ronaldo🤣
Because he’s not the goat
1. grabs way more attention
2. messi’s level is considered unreachable which would make others want to watch this video
There's no Tap in players
New Freddy Adu until proven otherwise. But good luck to the kid!
And Freddy Adu was the next Pelé 💀💀
This Dude reminds me Freddy Adu
Send him to South America for a season and we'll see how fast he wakes up .
get out the comments unc😂😂😂
@@AdotTotact He's gonna be the next Messi,just like the lazt American Pele,Freddy abu. How's that for a comeback,crkhed?
@@UA-camrdeportado yu look like a wannabe blood who would be friends with my grandpa
@@AdotTotact or bring him to Queens,NY. We'll see how measures up with the inmigrant kids.🤑🤑🤑🤑
@@UA-camrdeportado your a wannabe blood who
All hype, Messi is once in a lifetime... Never see another..
I hope the best for him but it's crazy to label him this way at this age. Maybe he becomes what they suggest but the odds are against him and the pressure will mount. Lift him up as a prospect but comparing him to Messi is kind of crazy. Some say Messi is the GOAT and while I would argue that, an American kid will only achieve a level even close if he is super hungry and willing to run through a brick wall to achieve greatness and most privileged Americans don't have that kind of hunger. It's why Brazilians and others from S America succeed. Again, I hope he proves me wrong and makes it in Europe. Will be a big fan if he does.
He’s a midfielder, not a winger like Messi?
Remember once they got a guy who called "AMERICAN PELÉ"😂
People need to stop hyping this kid so much and let grow first. Hopefully he doesn’t turn out to be another Freddy Adu
nobody is really doing anything to be honest
They show him do a no look pass to the left that looks cool but was not actually a great pass. The timing was off and it didn't work. Now. That being said, he has really great skills for his age and will be a good pro player most likely. Messi is premature
Now let's not hear any more about him until he turns 18.
Messi was signed at Barcelona at 13 when all of the most legendary players were present which the new generation are copying their skills from so dont compare him with messi or ronaldo and also to any one else
We stop calling every American Captain America?
no
Over hype incoming. Oet him progress naturally.
Why cant bro just be Cavan ?
Has anyone realised that it's pretty much a ROLLER COASTER when it comes to calling kids the next Leo Messi or CR7? Stop getting to these kids heads. Let them grow and develop. We've seen this happen millions of times before with other wonderkids. And they do it while the kid is still like 10 yrs old or something like that. Then the future comes and we see thst it was just because yhe other kids were still developing too. And the talent isn't there no more
I mean, he is just a Sullivan
Can only guess, Messi comparison is a keyword attempt at more views. Whats Irish Connection? Sullivan and first name Cavan.
Maybe he can declare for Ireland.
Why is everyone to the next messi
The next messi is messi son
Why do people always want to say this is the next Micheal Jordan or Lebron or Messi. Why dont we just say this player has the potential to be great.
Happy that he has been signed today. Sorry. Right now. Come in City...
It's okay to hype him up and hoping he will not be a future flop
Probably another Adu
don`t jinxed the kid
Clubs with a lot of money will never appreciate their academy players .they will run after the big names ,so these players will leave.
City academy is great ….
Big time USA from Texas let’s hope so but not a chance in hell
Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
He has a lot of potential his not the next the next Messi his the next world champ Sullivan if he surrounds him self with team players that let there ego to the side and understand roles
Welp there is another wonder kid we are going to over hype and ruin, remember that Aido kid.
ADU 2025 😂
How to destroy an aspiring footballers career.......compare him to one of the top 5 footballers of all time......ridiculous.
Freddy Adu, Freddy Adu, Freddy Adu. Let's put on the breaks.
NEVER you just cursed the kid for saying he is the next messi!! it just wont happen
He is good. Very good maybe. But to describe Messi you gotta look in a different dictionary.
just here to comment: NO
Seen kids 10x better in 89-92 age group for United States 🇺🇸
No you havnt. If you've ever played the game clown, you can take 1 look at his ball handling and strength and instantly realize he's a freak of nature.
Probably basing it off of pure athleticism. Those guys fall of when they reach a higher level.
Why are they hyping this kid that much? He's great. He is no Messi. Can he be? Maybe. I hope he becomes that good so I have exciting soccer to watch. But it's no good to hype like this.
An AM is a False 9. Just saying...
Looks small and slow he’ll peak
New Messi? Wtf?? Be serious please!
There's maybe a 10% chance he ever starts a game for a European team. And you're calling him the next Messi.
I mean, let's be fair. What European team are we talking about. He could start now in some leagues.
@@JJ-nu8qi He might start for teams in the 3rd or 4th level of English football
@@maipantoon7823 Yea im not saying a top league in Europe.
Messi????😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hopefully he can stay away from partying too much; this is usually what detracts from what would be a prodigy.
Ameeeerikahn
wc 2030. US will be a dark horse.
Cavan Sullivan is Bangladeshi🇧🇩🇧🇩
Glad we have a wonder kid, however, I really hope to is country do not over hype him. Him being in a top European league should keep him level headed, however, I really don’t feel Premier League is the right choice for developing skilled players. La Liga will always be the best league for developing skilled dribblers in Europe with the Netherlands, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, and Serie A being the best alternatives.
I’m going to be honest if he plays in America , money got him there not skill
With all due respect he will never be fit to lace Messi's boots.
He might become a top flight pro - maybe an international. Let's let him reach puberty first.
Is this your real voice or AI? Seems fake... and so annoying
No he won’t. This is why The Americans star players only get better once they’re older. Sullivan needs to be at an academy. This is why he won’t be better than Messi. Later on in life when he is much older then yes sure he has a chance to be for that period.
This is creepy
He will not even end up playing a pro
Questionable decision by this kid--American players keep getting bad advice.l What happens when Pep moves on before he ever gets to the first team? He would have been better served going to Barca, RMadrid or Dortmund.
It's not that simple going over there, and I would counter being home with his family. It might be a better environment than those places to grow up.
@JJ-nu8qi How did that turn out for Jordan Morris?
@@r2dad282 Maybe he just wasn't good enough most players fail in those systems also.
No he won’t. For those of you that don’t know: this kid is 5’-2”!!! His frame and size will be his handicap . I don’t see him being effective or successful in the EPL. He will literally get run over.
hes 14 he will still grow....and literally everyone in his family is 6 foot.
He's 14. Of course he's 5' 2" lol
He could be the best in history if you let him be himself and beat himself not compare to other players like messi , because we all know messi was a drug robot he has been treated for few years with drugs
You just putting more pressure on him like Pulisic and Adu
Don’t ever call think someone will be better than Messi. You better put down the drink.
he looks like a flop
Messi was doing this at age 8 come on
hes no messi lol watching him play he is just above average as far as the world goes he will be a great player but in 5 years we will seee that he will be akin to a frenky dejong not messi
America lucks so much talent when it comes to football they dubbed this mediocre kid the next Lionel Messi. Kid is average at best. He is in man city for jersey sales. They will get rid of him by 18years. Send him out on loan to Portugal or some cheap league.
why are you taking this seriously to begin with ? No USA fans is really saying anything
Yeah no. This punk can't kick the ball.
