Manchester United contact to sign defensive midfielder confirmed, now awaiting bid
Lucas Silva is back on the scene. Several British newspapers brought European gossip together and the Daily Express had a piece on Tuesday naming him the 'new Kaka'. In Brazilian football every young player has to be the reincarnation of a great before him but Kaka is perhaps the wrong choice this time, Lucas Silva is more of a defensive midfielder. It all stems from the player's agent Luiz Rocha yet again doing his best to stoke the fires of interest. Alexandre Mattos , director of sport at the player's current club Cruzeiro, has been at it too an spoken to FC Inter News about possible interest - confirming no bid has been made, and that no Inter contact had been made but also saying that if the Italian club wanted Lucas Silva they would have to pay a "substantial sum". It's all in the marketing. Claims of Real Madrid interest have also kicked off again in Spain, as the agent and club get hard to work. Not so long ago...
