The 15 year old wonder kid Hashim Mohammed, discovered through the Golden Foot Reality Show coached by Mohammed Polo is set to sign for Portsmouth FC next week after an impressive showing at Portsmouth.

News filtering in from Pompey indicates that Hashim will be loaned out to Zulte Waregem Club in the Belgium Premiership League for three years under a special technical arrangement until he’s 18 and ready for the premiership.

Hashim is described as an elegant player with a sweet left foot and tipped as one of the best young prospects on the world scene according to Pompey officials Coach Polo says the world should watch out for this kid, at fifteen he is almost a complete player and unlike most of our youngsters he is a true 15.

“I am of the firm belief that with the right development program and attention to youth development, Ghana would produce amazing footballers who would not fade out because they lied about their age.”

Meanwhile Spanish side Villarreal are said to be on the verge of beating Saturn Moscow to acquire another of Polo’s boys’ speedster Emmanuel Asante and Richmond Antwi who were on their way to Russia after the Russian side had made a bid for the Golden Foot talents.

So far eight of the sixteen players selected talents receiving tutelage from Mohammed Polo have had successful trails in Europe and are among the nation’s prized talents at the moment.

The young Golden Foot Reality Team better known as the Golden Stars have in the last 8 weeks recorded some very impressive results by beating the National U-17 side Black Starlets 4-2,Redbull Academy 2-0,Liberty Professionals 2-0, and will take on the national U-20 side Black Satellites on Friday 12th September in a friendly match.
