Barcelona prepare bid for Brazil starlet Lincoln

The Spanish publication Diario AS has learned that Barcelona are preparing an offer for the latest Brazilian sensation Lincoln.

In a reply to their fierce rivals Real Madrid who have already secured a signature for Vinicius Jr, the Catalan club are paving the path for his equal in terms of quality and potential to arrive to Camp Nou.

Flamengo treenager Lincoln has been tipped for greatness for quite some time and is expected to make a great name for himself in years to come.

The world once again took notice on Lincoln’s qualities during the U17 South American championship where Lincoln combined with Vinicius Jr to lead Brazil to title.

The young star is once again in flying form with Brazil at the ongoing Under 17 FIFA World Cup in India where he has already bagged three goals in as many matches.

Months away from his 17^th birthday, Lincoln is a hot transfer target for Barcelona who are believed to be preparing a lucrative €30 million for the powerful striker.
