Inter Milan, Arsenal & Borussia Dortmund Keen On Palmeiras Teenage Sensation

Inter Milan, Arsenal, and Borussia Dortmund are all keen to sign teenage Palmeiras sensation Luighi this summer.

This according to UK tabloid The Sun, via FCInterNews. They note that the 19-year-old has a release clause of €70 million, and could be on the move this summer despite a recent contract extension.

Teenage winger Luighi has been one of a number of outstanding talents to emerge from the academy of Brazilian club Palmeiras in the last couple years.

Palmeiras have made a number of high profile deals to send players to European clubs in recent years.

Perhaps the biggest transfer was that of teenage striker Endrick to Real Madrid.

However, there was also the sale of Estevao Willian to Chelsea.

And last summer, midfielder Luis Guillherme made the move to West Ham United in the Premier League.

Inter, Arsenal & Dortmund All Keen On Palmeiras Starlet Luighi

Luighi has followed in the footsteps of the above-mentioned players by impressing for Palmeiras at youth level.

The Brazilian played a starring role as the Verado won the Under-20 Copa Libertadores. And he is now starting to find his feet in the club’s senior team.

Therefore, it seems that a transfer to a European club is only a matter of time for Luighi.

Nevertheless, Palmeiras have recently tied the teenage winger down on a new contract.

Still, that may not mean that Luighi does not make the move to Europe this summer.

The Sun note that the 19-year-old has a €70 million release clause in his new deal.

Moreover, the UK tabloid report, Arsenal are keeping tabs on him. As are, they claim, Inter Milan.

Then, from the Bundesliga, The Sun report that Borussia Dortmund see Luighi as a potential replacement for Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, who looks certain to move to the Premier League this summer.
