So let me get this straight: a highly rated 21 year old Brazilian who has shown great potential in a relevant, challenging league is reported in The Echo as being on the verge of joining us? CL club swoop is imminent, I say.

Echo now saying £25-£30M.

 

That literally escalated  quickly.

 

Considering his release clause is some way lower than £20m going by numerous reports on the potential transfer we've had so far, how is the above even possible? Oh hang on...

I never heard of him as a striker but as an attacking midfielder, although in Brazil there is some flexibility in the roles - see how deep Neymar picks the ball up, for instance. Here he's known as a good kid with a great work rate. I like him and hope the deal happens.
