Swedish professional footballer Roony Bardghji has been hailed as 'the Swedish Messi' due to his style of play for FC Copenhagen.

The 18 year old has represented the club since 2020 and scored his first Champions League goal against Manchester United in November last year. Former England player Rio Ferdinand praised the midfielder's ability and commented 'I think he's going to be a name we're going to hear more about'. Bardghji has since been linked to various Premier League clubs including Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United, and is rumoured to transfer this summer.
