Noah Beck was one of the stars of the show at this year's Soccer Aid and his performance didn't go unnoticed by Mauricio Pochettino.

With a number of former professionals dusting off their boots to entertain the crowd, Beck was one of those who looked as though he'd played at the highest level before.

The 22-year-old is best known as an American social media personality and boasts more than 30 million followers on TikTok.

And though the American didn't score, he was so influential in the World XI's 4-2 victory that Pochettino paid the youngster the ultimate compliment.

In a now-viral clip, the Argentine manager is filmed speaking with Beck and stressing that the 22-year-old has the potential to turn professional if he wants.

"I am in love with him," Pochettino tells the camera.

"I think he can turn professional if he wants.

"You played amazing," he then adds, turning to face Beck.

"We'll talk, we'll talk," Beck then replies.

"You played really, really well," Pochettino emphasises once again.
