Video: Belgian wonderkid has been dubbed the next Lionel Messi

Firstly, this youngster looks a very talented footballer.

Rayane Bounida is an 8 year old who plays for Anderlecht in Belgium, and can be seen dribbling rings around opponents and scoring lots of goals in this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=155&v=p_91hL3nvCI According to the bastion of investigative journalism that is The Sport Bible the lad has been scouted by a number of top European clubs, and has already been dubbed 'little Messi'. Is that right though? Should an eight year old, who most likely still believes in Santa Claus, has just learned to tie his shoelaces and is only get used to not using a night light, be compared to the best player in the world and possibly the greatest player ever? The accompanying music gives the impression that child is already as good as Messi.
