The last video with a child as the protagonist who is giving what to talk on the Internet (and that has even appeared on television news) is this one that I bring you in which an 18-month-old boy shows his ball skills.
In just 20 seconds he gets three from different distances in an open trunk, showing that he has a privileged touch and a possible future as a foul thrower.
The video has become so famous in his country, Holland, that a Dutch first division soccer team has noticed him and decided to sign him.
The boy's name is Baerke van der Meij and he has signed a contract with VVV-Venlo. That said it sounds pretty incredible, but the reality is a bit more humorous, since everything has been a maneuver of the club to give a little publicity, taking advantage of the passing fame of the mini soccer player.
In addition, it should be clarified that the club was already linked in some way with the child's family, because his grandfather played in his youth in said team. The contract is symbolic, but to make the joke complete the signature of the same and the presentation has been made as if a player of the first team involved, and if you do not believe it, look at the photos:
As you can see, it can be observed until the rubric of the child in the contract that, incidentally, is symbolic and is valid for the next ten years.
Club sources have stated that the signing "It is a way to get some publicity. It is not a real contract. There are no restrictions, there is no money involved."
Honestly, I think it's a funny gesture on the part of the club that, indeed, it is getting publicized. In addition, if in the end it turns out that the child turns out to be a future crack of football, hey, they already have it "tied".
