Brenner Souza da Silva

[A_G]

The Brazilian has been one of the standout players for the South American side in 2020, managing 15 goals and three assists in 25 appearances in all competitions.

It’s claimed the attacker’s performances for São Paulo have been ‘attracting the attention of several European clubs’, with Mikel Arteta’s side included in the list.

The outlet adds ‘Thanks to Italian descent in the maternal line’, the player could be eligible to get a European passport, which would get him ‘within the reach’ of the clubs interested in signing him.

According to the report, the list includes Juve, Milan, Lazio, Arsenal, Ajax and Paris Saint-Germain. Brenner’s current deal with São Paulo lasts until 2022 and has a €50m release clause for clubs outside Brazil.

Calciomercato.it, however, explain his exit from the club next summer can be facilitated for a fee less than €50m.

Same agent as Gabriel

@El Duderino any insight on this kid?

 

[L3T5 PL4Y]

Elite name though doesn't look all that interesting. Nelson seems more skillful and interesting overall.

Were Arsenal he's far to young and highly touted for us to be interested....

 

[Let's play Aubamawang]

Perhaps not the most skillful, but he can pick a pass, is an aggressive presser, and most importantly, he'll throw his body on the line to get on the end of a cross. And his finishing is excellent. Is he worth £45m? Maybe not, but we can all agree it would probably be an upgrade on Laca.

 

[Why]

Not the best highlight reel ive seen.

Fair play he gets back and tackles, but none of that pressing resulted in an immediate impact or led to a goal based off that clip.

I despair for the club if our main striker is rated on his ability to tackle.

His taps in were fine, but any shots he had were all pretty poor shots with no power.

Doesn't look like someone we would spend 50mil on when you have Martinelli

Similar type of forward to Lacazette. Just more talented.

Wish listed him a few weeks back.

That wasn't a very impressive compilation tbh

Does the Italian passport thing matter any more to us post-brexit?

 

[truth_hurts]

What is he like defensively? Can he play in a low block?
