Pietro Tomaselli is around four foot tall and can’t watch a PG-rated film on his own, but everyone is talking about his amazing football skills.

In the end the ‘Pocket Pele’ plumped for AS Roma, and his father has spoken of the stir that his precocious son has caused at the Serie A club.
“We were really wonderfully welcomed,” Pino Tomaselli explained, “Everyone knows about [Pietro] already: the club president, the senior players. They think he could be better than Diego Maradona.”
