Inter Milan's teenage signing Kevin Zefi is being backed for big things.

Zefi has agreed on a three year deal with Inter, after being spotted with Shamrock Rovers in Ireland.

The 15 year-old midfielder has been likened to former Republic of Ireland star Damien Duff.

Duff's former Ireland teammate Stephen Carr told The Times: “Kevin certainly has a fairly unusual technical ability. You don't see many of them anymore, especially in Ireland. That's why the comparison is made with Duff's dribbling.

"If you can use Duff as an example of how to get somewhere, then great."
