The South American Under-20 champion with Brazil, Neymar is ready to make the big leap to Europe. The 18-year old Santos striker gave further demonstration of his talent in the tournament final, scoring two goals in the 6-0 final against Uruguay.

The player, who is considered the new Pele, is of interest to major European clubs.  Santos, however, do not want to discount its jewel, valued 45 million euro. A figure that cuts out of the Italian teams but not clubs like Bayern Monaco, Chelsea and Real Madrid.

Also from Brazil is the rumour that Milan would have the advantage with player as it is not really convinced of a full recovery from the injured Ganso and the recent performance of Pato. If Pato were to leave for the Premier league this could allow the Rossoneri to raise the cash needed to purchase the young phenomenon.
