Definitely one for the AC Milan future, Alexandre Pato has had to endure the pressure of being singled out by fellow countryman Ronaldinho as the Brazilian youngster most likely to make the grade in world football and now has a 20 million EURO price tag to justify as well.

As Italian regulations decree that a non-EU minor can't register properly with an Italian league side, Pato must wait until January 2008 to feature in a competitive game for AC Milan but will train with the squad and feature in friendly games from the 3rd September 2007 following his 18th brithday.

Certainly a name we'll be hearing more about in the future.
