According to Brazil's "Global Sports", Barca president Laporta intends to bring in Gremio's 16-year-old Breno Melo to strengthen the team lineup. A few days ago, Laporta and Merlot's representatives Fernando Matos met, and former Barca player Deco also attended.
In addition to focusing on youngster Ndrik, Laporta could also bet on Breno Melo. Not long ago, Barca also received the right to buy two of Santos' youngsters, Keiki Fernandez and Angelo.
Gremio is going through a very difficult time due to being relegated, so they need the team's young players to grow up as soon as possible to help the team return to the Bundesliga. Melo wears the number 10 shirt at the Gremio U17, and his contract contains a €40 million termination bonus clause. Due to his rapid growth, he has become the focus of attention from a number of Europe's top clubs. Merle's contract with Gremio expires in 2024 and he will only be able to travel to Europe to pursue his dreams until he turns 18.
During Matos's visit to Barcelona, Laporta showed him the club's infrastructure and he also watched Barca's victory over Atletico.
Merlot has excellent foot technique, and dribbling is his forte. However, as a right-footed player, he still needs to improve his left-foot ability. Last year, he also underwent treatment that led to a certain increase in height.
