Inter set to beat Man United and Liverpool in race for Sao Paulo wonderkid
Posted Thursday, January 19, 2012 by Talksport.co.uk
Manchester United and Liverpool are set to miss out on Sao Paulo star Lucas as Inter Milan are close to sealing a deal for the wonderkid, according to reports in Italy.
The Premier League giants have been linked with a deal worth more than £20m for the 19-year-old, who is rated as one of the best prospects in Brazil.
But Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport claims that Marco Branca, Inter Milan's sporting director, has flown to Brazil to complete the transfer.
And that is likely to scupper the north-west duo's hopes of signing the Sao Paulo youngster.
