Age: 17

Position: Central Midfielder

Club: Atletico Paranaese

Similar to Maycon, this central midfielder possesses all the attributes necessary to forge an exciting career. At just 17-years-old, he is already gaining a lot of attention domestically.

It is most likely that he will first move to a bigger domestic outfit before Europe comes knocking and with Atletico suffering from poor leadership on all fronts, the sooner the better for his development.

Whilst at 17, it would be wrong to heap any more pressure on him than he is alreayd having to deal with, his exploits in the FIFA U-17 World Cup will have certainly alerted Europe's giants.
