Roma and Manchester City vying for Vitinho

Victor Gabriel Moura de Oliveira is a 17-year-old Brazilian midfielder commonly known as Vitinho, who’s been drawing plenty of attention with his fine displays at the FIFA Under 17 World Cup currently being played in India.

Vitinho is considered one of the hottest emerging talents in the Brazilian football and the Corinthians attacking midfielder has already turned plenty of big European heads including Roma and Manchester City.

The Italian media are suggesting that Serie A giants and Premier League title contenders are leading the chase for the exciting prospect.

Vitinho is said to be under €25 million release clause at his club Corinthians and Pep Guardiola is said to be extremely keen on landing another top talent to his growing Brazilian contingent.

Manchester City are believed to have acquired a first option clause on Vitinho in 2015 when this Brazilian teenager spent ten days in Manchester, training with the youth team.

AS Roma, however, are attempting to ruin the deal for Citizens with Giallorossi new sporting director Monchi believed to have already approached Vitinho’s representatives.
