This young talent has shot onto the scene with some great performances in both his domestic league and in the UEFA Champions League.
Having spent all of his life in the Portuguese city of Porto, his footballing career carries on here and has recently started playing more regularly for the senior team. Already making 35 appearances in the Portuguese top division. The reason Vieira is on here is not because of his incredible statistics, but because of the way he plays and conducts himself on the pitch. He has not scored in 2 seasons for his team domestically, only netting once in the Champions League. This does not matter to me! We have to consider that he plays as a central midfield player who doesn't play every single game, but his abilities lie with passing. He reminds me of Hakim Ziyech and Mesut Ozil, the way in which he has a wand of a left foot which seems to conduct the whole game around him.
He has come up through the youth national team and soon I do not think it will be long until he gets his call up to the senior team, representing his country at the top level. Still only 21 years of age, I believe there is plenty more for him to learn and I am convinced he will turn into a great young midfielder.
