Fredua Koranteng "Freddy" Adu (born June 2, 1989) is a Ghanaian-born American soccer player who currently plays for Philadelphia Union in Major League Soccer. He plays primarily as an attacking midfielder, but he is also used as a winger or forward.
At the age of 14, he became one of the youngest athletes to sign a professional contract in the United States, after he was selected by D.C. United in the 2004 MLS SuperDraft. On April 3, 2004, he became the youngest player to appear in a Major League Soccer (MLS) game when he came on as a substitute in a game against the San Jose Earthquakes. Two weeks later, on April 17, he became the youngest scorer in MLS history, scoring a goal in a 3–2 loss to the MetroStars.
Freddy Adu was considered a promisse for United States soccer, granting a large amount of hype towarding him and even been called the "next Pele". Despite his great actuations in youth U.S. team, he failed to demostrate enough skills to play in English Premier League and wasn't called by U.S. Soccer for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
I saw your face in the crowd
Everyone dancing
I asked if they knew your name
They couldn't see you
Thought I'd walk over
Stood there right next to you
Got a sensation
You were right for my body
Ha-ha-ha-ha
You're heaven
Ha-ha-ha-ha
We radiate
Ha-ha-ha-ha
You're heaven
Ha-ha-ha-ha
We radiate
I felt a chill in the air
It's not me dancing
Everyone looks kinda strange
Colors colliding
I'm in possession
This is no ordinary
Friday night disco
You stepped into my body
Ha-ha-ha-ha
You're heaven
Ha-ha-ha-ha
We radiate
Ha-ha-ha-ha
You're heaven
Ha-ha-ha-ha
