From the source

Source excerpt · Newcastle Toons ↗

Exciting Newcastle United youngster Matheos Ferreira was born in Ashington and raised in Berwick-upon-tweed, but the 18-year-old has just received a call-up to Brazil’s U20 side for the upcoming international break.

Ferreira is widely considered one of the top talents emerging from the Magpies’ academy and, despite his international recognition, is set to be subject to a tug of war over his representation in the coming years, as he is actually eligible for three different countries.

Being called up to Brazil’s U20 setup is no mean feat and is a real testament to how Ferreira’s stocks have risen over the past year in the Magpies’ academy.
