Argentine wonderkid Daniel Villalva is a £5 million target for Manchester United.

The News of the World says Villalva, who plays for River Plate, has already been labelled the new Lionel Messi and is attracting interest from a number of top European clubs, including Real Madrid.

Villalva, 17, said: "I am calm about my future and will not let things go to my head about a move to Europe.

"I'm happy to continue playing at River Plate and want to help them become champions."
