Reports of \u2018revenge\u2019 on Manchester United from Arsenal have been described as \u2018inevitable\u2019 by a journalist in the chase for \u2018Kid Messi\u2019 JJ Gabriel after a viral video of him displaying \u2018silly talent.\u2019<\/p>\n
United<\/a> have produced some fantastic talents in recent years. Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho have both become quality attackers following their time at Carrington.<\/p>\n More recently, Chido Obi seems to be turning himself into a threat up top, though he was poached from the Arsenal academy.<\/p>\n Next in line to find his way into United\u2019s first team could be JJ Gabriel, described as \u2018Kid Messi\u2019 due to hie exceptional dribbling and skill.<\/p>\n So far this season, the 15-year-old forward has seven goals and one assist to his name in six under-18 Premier League games.<\/p>\n There have been rumours that he could make the switch to Arsenal amid his top form, and Isaan Khan has written for the Daily Mail<\/a> that suggestions of \u2018revenge\u2019 from the Gunners are \u2018inevitable.\u2019<\/p>\n That\u2019s given United signed both Obi and Ayden Heaven from the Emirates, prising away two talented youngsters in the process.<\/p>\n Arsenal are certainly reported to be \u2018aware of\u2019 Gabriel, but reports of concrete interest are \u2018premature\u2019.<\/p>\n Gabriel\u2019s short-term future is committed to United until at least his 16th birthday, and the earliest he could sign his first professional contract is in the summer of 2027, before it would come into effect when he turns 17.<\/p>\n MORE ON MAN UTD FROM F365: United are said to be \u2018desperate\u2019 to keep Gabriel on their books, as they see him as a \u2018future superstar\u2019 and have reportedly offered him a box at the new Old Trafford \u2013 set to open in 2030.<\/p>\n This right here is an elite talent, JJ Gabriel \ud83d\udd25. Hopefully we\u2019ll have a competent manager by the term he\u2019s ready for the first team transition pic.twitter.com\/QJX3EXhU20<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Ryan (@Utd_BarryRyan) October 11, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n Gabriel has displayed his exceptional talent online of late. A video has gone viral on social media of him passing a tennis ball back to himself off a wall, one touch at a time, using his left and right feet equally, before simply keeping it up by doing kick-ups.<\/p>\n He then walked to a wall behind him, keeping the ball up still, knocked the ball against it a couple of times, before walking back to the first wall, ball still in the air, and started kicking it harder back to himself from about six feet away.<\/p>\n Many social media accounts were in awe of the video, with football content creator Tom Garratt<\/a> labelling it \u2018silly talent\u2019 as a mark of respect for the tough feat.<\/p>\n
