Real Madrid are once again looking to the Brazilian market in search of young talent. According to a report from Diario Sport, citing the Brazilian outlet R7, the white club have Vitão, an 18-year-old centre-back who belongs to Atletico Mineiro, on their radar.
The defender is regarded as one of the promising talents in Brazilian football and, despite his age, is already playing a prominent role for his team. The available material describes him as a centre-back with good qualities both in the air and in building from the back, two aspects especially valued in prospects for Europe's elite.
Vitão is also a Brazil Under-20 international and his progress has not gone unnoticed by the senior national-team set-up, with Carlo Ancelotti and his coaching staff keeping a close eye on his development.
The move, in any case, is not confirmed. For now, this is an interest attributed by the published reports, with no sign of an official offer or any completed negotiations. Alongside Real Madrid, the player has also been linked with Premier League clubs such as Brighton & Hove Albion and Everton.
