Goncalo Reis is the small-time football agent that represent Bebe when he still at Estrela da Amadora.
While talking about Bebe..he rated him above Nani.
He will not be as good as Ronaldo but will be better than Nani. Somewhere in between. But he will be humble and he will learn. He will be like a little boy with Ferguson. He will just wait for the orders. Then, one day, he will explode on the field.’
If you would like to read more about the incredible rise of a lost street kid who is now playing with Manchester United – Bebe. You can read here. A very nice article!!
I am very shock when Manutd signed this guy. He is totally unknown and there are no Youtube video & Wikipedia page about him by the time he signed with United. He only played for Third Division football in Portugal and a handful of friendlies for his new club, Vitoria Guimaraes.
His best achievement maybe represented Portugal in Homeless World Cup!!.
Then, United made a shock £7.4million move which activated the release clause in his contract after Sir Alex Ferguson agreed with his former Manchester United assistant coach and current Portugal manager Carlos Queiroz recommendation.
We are waiting for Ozil..but we got Bebe! Some said he is our 8th striker this season…but some also said..he is actually an attacking midfielder. But..Sir Alex Ferguson said that he is a winger!!.
He is 20 years old and his height is 6ft 2in. By watching below video, he looks like a very straight forward player and very fast too. Its hard to find the player as tall as Bebe can run that fast with a ball.
From living on the streets, to growing up in a shelter and playing within the organization that puts together Portugal’s Homeless World Cup team and finally, signing with one of the biggest clubs in the world at the age of 20. Surely Disney is already scheduling a release date for his biopic. Hahah..
And..and…and..the best quote about this signing from our fan..
