Barcelona, Real Madrid set to battle over Brazilian teen

Real Madrid and Barcelona are set for another El Clasico match, only this time it will not happen on the pitch, but rather, for the services of a 16-year old prodigy.

The fierce rivals are eyeing moves for Brazilian wonderkid Lincoln, and both clubs are ready to go head to head to secure the signature of the youngster.

Lincoln lit up the recent Under-17 World Cup, scoring three goals.

His form on the international stage has seen him promoted to the senior side with Flamengo, and Real and Barca are preparing their moves, according to Marca.

Despite his tender years, Flamengo will apparently not entertain any bids of under €30million for the player, who is part of the ‘2000 Generation’ in Brazil getting fans very excited.

Vinicius Junior is a player that has already caught the eye of Los Blancos and is now owned by the Spanish giants.
