Man City chief Vieira excited about Portuguese superkid Marcos Lopes

Manchester City development coach Patrick Vieira admits management is excited about Marcos Lopes.

The 17 year-old Portuguese attacker has already made his first team debut for City.

"Marcos is a very talented young player, who is very good on the ball, plays very quickly and scores goals. This is a number 10 as the old saying goes, but works hard for the team.

"I believe in him because he is someone who works hard in training. He really wants to succeed. And when you have the talent and desire to succeed, in general, you get there," Vieira told Foot Mercato.
