Chelsea advancing deal to sign teenager Gabriel Mec

Brazilian teenager Gabriel Mec has been linked with Premier League giants Chelsea and are advancing in their pursuit of the talented attacker. He has used his trickery and dribbling to get past defenders with easer and has earned him comparisons with Brazil legend Neymar.

The 16-year-old attacker has been creating noise in Gremio’s youth sides and Chelsea are confident of securing a deal over the line with a total package worth €20m. The Chelsea owners have increasingly secured deals for talented youngsters emerging from South America.

If a move to Stamford Bridge does materialise, Gabriel Mec won’t be able to join until he turns 18.
