Sci fiction / fantasy novel about a teenager with telekinesis but couldn't control it not until a mysterious young man taught him

The novel is more of a teen sci-fi book. I can’t remember the author, but it’s somewhere along the line of Anthony Horowitz.

It’s a paper back series novel. I read it in my high school’s library sometime in 2014/2015. It seems like there are other teenagers with similar powers in the series. The telekinetic teenager is the first book in the series.

A teenager discovers he has telekinesis but doesn’t know how to control it. A particular scene keeps playing on my mind. A young man approached this teenager, took him to his house, more like a basement with junk, old car tires and stuff, and the young man helped the teenager learn how to control his power. In particular, he asked him to move the tires with his thoughts and after several failed attempt, the teenager managed to lift the tires off the basement floor for a few minutes.

Another scene was when the young man took the telekinetic teenager to a football game, and placed a bet on a particular team. Towards the last minute of the match, the young man turned to the teenager and told him to use his telekinetic powers on the ball to score some goals so as to win the match for the team he had already placed a bet on, which the teenager reluctantly did. The team won the match, thanks to the teenager and the young man shared the winnings from his bet with the telekinetic teenager.
