Good news all around. By all accounts this kid is a stud. Fantastic technique and basically can run at a full sprint with the ball glued to his feet. Being the top player in a tournament in which you're one of the youngest participants is no easy feat, especially when playing the likes of Spain and Argentina.

Did I read correctly that he's 5'2"?

That's from the US soccer page, which oddly enough doesn't get updated as frequently as it should. I think he's 5'4, but I can't remember where I read that.

Iniesta and Messi are still going to call him ´shorty´.

Kind of expected him to sign with a bigger club, as there were plenty scouting him. Anyways, this is good to see. He is a playmaker and a very good one at that.

I wish him the best

Edgar Castillo will still strain his neck to look up at him.

I'm trying not to make it a big deal, but wow 5'2 is small. Surely he's not fully grown. Anyhow, it's not so much his height, just hope he can get strong enough to not just get touched off the ball.

You can see he's shorter than everyone else, but the 5'2 thing is from an article from 2012. He's definitely grown since then, one would think.

Fagundez is listed as 5'8" now, but I could have sworn he was listed as 5'4" last year, fwiw.
