MANCHESTER CITY have a new superstar on their books – and he is the son of a Premier League icon.<\/p>\n

Reigan Heskey, son of former England striker Emile Heskey, made his UEFA Youth League debut on Tuesday.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

And within the opening 10 minutes he was able to get on the scoresheet.<\/p>\n

After winning a penalty in the early stages of the match against Young Boys, Reigan stepped up to take the spot kick and perfectly placed the ball into the bottom-right corner.<\/p>\n

The 15-year-old instantly wheeled away in celebration and was surrounded by his team-mates.<\/p>\n

Man City went on to win the match thanks to goals from Mahamadou Susoho and Matthew Henderson-Hall.<\/p>\n

And Jaden Heskey, who also starred for Man City on the day, was quick to heap praise on his younger brother at full-time.<\/p>\n

He said: "It was mad. He was actually at school at the time and found out [that he was in the squad] there, then I got a text off my mum saying he was playing, then we found out today that he was starting.<\/p>\n

"It was a big surprise, but it was good.<\/p>\n

"I had confidence in him, he won it himself and he\u2019s normally very good at penalties.<\/p>\n

"I didn\u2019t think the atmosphere would get to him too much."<\/p>\n

The boys' dad was among the crowd at the Joie Stadium as City cruised to a convincing win.<\/p>\n

He took to Instagram on Tuesday afternoon to share his pride, writing: "Proud moment for me and @chantelleheskey having both our boys on the pitch at the same time for UEFA Youth League."<\/p>\n

Heskey, 45, kicked off his professional career with Leicester City and made his first team debut at the age of 17.<\/p>\n

He then joined Liverpool in 2000, where he scored 60 goals and provided 29 assists in 223 games.<\/p>\n

The striker's time at Anfield coincided with his senior England breakthrough.<\/p>\n

Heskey made 62 appearances for the Three Lions, scoring seven goals.<\/p>\n

He also played for Birmingham, Wigan, Aston Villa, Bolton and Australian side Newcastle Jets before retiring from professional football in 2016.<\/p>\n
