While Chelsea are currently in talks with Palmeiras to try and sort out the future of Andrey Santos, they are also interested in another Brazilian starlet: Vitor Roque.

The forward has been on the radar of many big clubs, including the Blues, for quite some time now, but Club Athletics Paranaense aren’t in a rush to sort out a deal for him.

That’s despite him turning 18 in just a week, meaning he would be able to move to Europe in the summer if Chelsea or any other team were to reach an agreement for his transfer.

Calciomercato have an article on the situation on Tuesday, and explain that an ‘international auction is raging’ for the 17-year-old.

Teams such as Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Barcelona are ‘ready to battle it out with millionaire offers’, with it stated the Brazilian side already value their player at ‘over €30m’.

This comes amid interest from Milan, although it seems they are focusing on other areas, such as Noah Okafor, for the time being.

As for Chelsea, we all know they are prepared to drop money on a player at any moment if Todd Boehly is convinced the move is a good idea.
