Liverpool target Yalcouye wins huge praise after first IFK goal

IFK Gothenburg superkid Malick Junior Yalcouye is already winning huge praise.

Yalcouyé is being watched by Liverpool.

And after scoring his first goal in the Allsvenskan, the teen won praise from opposition coach Andreas Engelmark: "I think Malick is the best on the field, he does well when he makes it difficult for us.

"Many times in the first half we have good pressure, but then he is the one who solves it individually. He was the best on the field today, in my opinion."

IFK teammate Thomas Santos said: "I was surprised. It was almost like Robin van Persie when he jumps like that. It was very well done, I'm very happy for him that he gets to score his first goal. He can do everything, you can see that he can do everything on the pitch."
