Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United are keen to sign Palmeiras defender Marcus Vinnicius.
The 17-year-old has been a key player in the Palmeiras youth team and the two English clubs are keen to sign his signature as PL Brasil. He would be a quality long-term investment for them and it will be interesting to see if Tottenham or Newcastle come in with a formal bid to sign the player.
Vinnicius certainly has the potential to play for the biggest clubs in the world and could be a long-term investment for the two English clubs. A technically gifted defender will add defensive cover and recovery speed to the side as well. Tottenham have been very active when it comes to developing their defensive unit and have already brought in the likes of Micky van de Ven, and Radu Dragusin. It looks like they are looking to bring in a left back now.
The Brazilian will be attracted by the idea of joining a club like Tottenham and could develop him into a key player in the coming seasons.
Newcastle want to sign Marcus Vinnicius
Newcastle will be an interesting place for him too. They have an ambitious project and the player will surely be attracted by the idea of joining them. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
If the two English clubs were able to sign the Brazilian player at a satisfactory price, it may be a difficult move for them in the long run. Meanwhile, Wolverhampton Wanderers are looking at his situation again.
The defender is expected to sign a new contract with Palmeiras and they will look to include an £85 million release clause in his contract. A new deal is expected to be signed this week, with the Brazilian club looking to tie him down to a professional contract until 2026 with an option to extend until 2029.
