Manchester United have already had scouts cast an eye on the teenager, while Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool are all said to be keeping tabs on him too.

Gustavo Nunes, an 18-year-old offensive midfielder from Gremio has caught the attention of major European clubs, particularly in England. He is under contract with the Porto Alegre club until the end of the calendar year 2028. According to the pages of today's Daily Mail, the 2005-born player has been directly followed by a scout from Manchester United with a view to a possible purchase. Last week, in fact, a Red Devils observer followed him in two games: the home defeat in Copa Libertadores against Huachipato and the subsequent knock-out against Vasco da Gama in the match that opened the dances in the Brazil championship.
