Juventus rival Arsenal for €30m Sao Paulo talent
It appears that Marquinhos Cipriano is their new target: the Sao Paulo midfielder is known in Brazil for scoring 14 goals in 12 Under-17 games for his club. A small player (1.70m), he's known for his speed and dribbling skills in tight spaces, and can beat his man, too.
He is, however, the property of Juan Figer, a businessman who owns 70% of his rights. ESPN Brazil claim that Juventus and Arsenal have set their sights on him, though the Brasileirao club has stonewalled everything with a €30 million release clause, and wants to keep him and develop him for longer.
