How many shirts could this guy potentially sell?

☻ Try and ignore Chelsea's recent record in recent years of bring youth through.

☻ He's been dubbed the new Kaka (Kaka was/is more of an athlete but Piazon is more technically gifted than Kaka was at the same age)

☻ He already has a huge fanbase despite never playing first team football in his life. (80k+ followers on twitter and counting). Large proportion of that fanbase are females. $$$$$$$$

☻ He's a prolific goalscorer at youth level. Incredible composure in front of goal and can finish with either foot. Goalscorers usually get more praise, publicity and adoration than false playmakers/defenders/goalkeepers/b2b full backs etc.

☻ He's playing for an English club (imagine the hype if he's a 20+ goal a season player)

☻ He's a member of the exclusive rich, talented and handsome club. Emphasis on handsome (gay I know)

☻ He's Brazilian.


Could he one day reach the Neymar, Ronaldo, Torres, Rooney, R10, Beckham, Messi etc levels, in terms of marketing in the near future if he fulfills his potential? Possibly even surpass them?

isnt he coming to madrid or something?

Its only matter of price that he will end up in R.Madrid

He wears Nike right? Well Nike are invested in Nerman, if he was at a team that was sponsored by Nike then maybe.

Promote him already

You're thinking Lucas Moura.

He's sponsored by Adidas, if he came to Madrid the possibilty of marketing is very high

You can say this about any handsome youth with potential tbh, don't see what makes him so different from other youth who have talent.....

Maybe revisit this when and if he is ever given a shot at the big stage and proves himself

*bleep* , i totally forgot , he is the piazon guy .. my bad lol

He's gotta perform with the first team first.. All those guys were in contention for the ballon don't at one point or another

who is he

All youth are talented...funny how so many of the best ones don't make it.

Is this a modeling forum or a football forum? WTF is this shit?

Cool story...

Killed 77 people.

More shirts than the white pele

I heard he replies to all his messages on Twitter. I think that's really cool of him, it would certainly help his reputation with fans.

I think he could sell about 5 shirts.


Potentially.....

cannot wait for him to hit the first team.

he is by far our most likely youth player to play for the first team*, he has already been on the bench for us.

*not including players who have already played first team.

to answer the shirt question, I imagine if he keeps going the way he is, he will sell as many as the likes of Torres, RVP, Rooney Etc.

after pre season he will bench meireles
