Nicknamed the “little Messi”, Zayn Ali Salman is a 5-year-old boy who was lucky enough to be recruited by the prestigious Arsenal club. A real phenomenon of the round ball on social networks.

His dribbling and ball handling immediately recall those of Argentinian Lionel Messi. Zayn Ali Salman is only five years old, but his style of play closely resembles that of the Paris Saint-Germain player. His golden feet allow him to hope for a great career, which begins very early: the young Englishman was signed by the London club Arsenal. It is such a phenomenon that he is invited to many shows, including on the BBC.

The young Zayn Ali, whose mother is French, is so talented that he sometimes has to train with players aged 10, making a head or two more than him. Without lowering the level. However, his precocity raises the question: is it appropriate to make him such a young star? On social networks, thousands of people follow his progress in bodybuilding as well as his partnership with a children’s brand.
