Chelsea are in a four-way transfer battle for wonderkid Gabriel Menino, according to reports.

The Brazilian has attracted interest with his ‘great technical qualities’ while playing for Palmeiras.

The Blues are long-standing admirers of Menino, and have been linked with making a £17million swoop.

But now they’ve got competition.

According to Calciomercato, Tottenham are also interested in the gifted midfielder, who can play at right-back.

Menino starred as his side won the Copa Libertadores last year, being selected in the official team of the tournament.
