The £33m Porto ace who can inject creativity into Man United

Diego Maradona and Lionel Messi both lit up the U20 World Cup in 1979 and 2005 respectively. Both were pivotal in their nation's success, operating in the no.10 role and using their left foot to devastating effect. Both became global superstars.Now Juan Quintero is being tipped to do the same. The 20-year-old Colombian may not have tasted victory in the most recent edition of the competition in July like his South American counterparts, but his stunning displays in Turkey were enough to convince people of his star quality.
Quintero helped Colombia win the South American Youth Championship in January before he capped off excellent displays at the World Cup with three goals in four games, all of which led to him sealing a move to Porto.Porto's new creative force has helped fill the void in that part of the pitch after Joao Moutinho left for Monaco.
As their rivals strengthened, the Red Devils ended up with Marouane Fellaini and Manchester Evening News sports editor Peter Spencer lambasted the club's summer dealings. "They needed strength and creativity, not one or the other," he told talkSPORT.
Quintero is a masterful no.10 and capable of using his lethal foot to smash goals in from distance as well as split defences apart with pinpoint accurate passing.
Porto have made it their business to pick up players like compatriots Radamel Falcao, James Rodriguez and Fredy Guarin on the cheap and earn a fortune by selling them on.Since leaving the club those players have earned themselves lucrative contracts at Atletico Madrid, Monaco and Inter. With Quintero's release clause being set at €40m (£33m), the club are set for another windfall, especially if he does make the plane to Brazil in 2014.Man United will no doubt be sniffing around again, but so will rivals like Chelsea, Man City and those on the continent.

orto's new creative force has helped fill the void in that part of the pitch after Joao Moutinho left for Monaco and it's that movement and intelligence Man United supporters were crying out for on forums during the transfer window.

Quintero is a masterful no.10 and capable of using his lethal foot to smash goals in from distance as well as split defences apart with pinpoint accurate passing. Tim Vickery, talkSPORT's South American correspondent, has claimed that precision is reminiscent of Glenn Hoddle.
