Newcastle United are facing competition from Chelsea and Barcelona to land exciting Brazilian youngster Andrey Santos.
But with fully-fledged World Cup star Bruno Guimaraes on board, the club have a great selling point to the 18-year-old. Suggestions in the capital this week were that the Blues were in advanced talks but Newcastle are in a great position with Santos.
Indeed, the teenager shares the same agent as Bruno and looks up to the Newcastle star. Santos is a defensive midfielder but can play further up the pitch. He is in the same Bertolucci Sports stable that helped secure Bruno's move from Lyon last winter.
