English league champions Manchester United have reportedly prepared a deal to sign Venezuelan youngster Roberto Carlos Brito Rojas, who has shown considerable talent; enough for the Premier League club to tag him the new Ronaldo.

According to reports from South America, United coaches David Hudgell and Massimo Pauri have been impressed by the teenage striker during his trial and are now preparing to send him to American Major League Soccer club Dallas Texans, which is a feeder club for United.
