Rio de Janeiro, Jan 26 (IANS) The son of Brazilian World Cup winner Bebeto is reportedly on the radar of Italian giant Juventus.
Matheus, an 18-year-old playmaker for Flamengo, impressed talent scouts from the Turin club while representing Brazil at this month's South American Under-20 championship in Argentina, reports Xinhua.
The youngster's representatives are negotiating with the Serie A side with a possible deal to be announced "within days".
