Inter and Napoli have reportedly set their sights on Cruzeiro’s 21-year-old midfield sensation Lucas Silva.
The January transfer market may be a distant prospect, but reports in and around Italy suggest that the two sides are keeping tabs on the talented youngster.
Fichajes.net reports that the Brazilian could be made available for a fee of €5 million, but there are a number of intermediaries that will likely drive up the cost of the transaction.
Along with the Serie A duo, Borussia Dortmund are also said to be interested in the South American prodigy.
Lucas has three goals in 65 appearances in all competitions for Cruzeiro already, including a goal in four outings for the Brazilian U20 side.
