Barcelona chief admits interest in Brazilian prodigy
Story updated
The story in brief
28-second readJoao Amaral, head of the scouting department at La Liga giants Barcelona, has this weekend all but confirmed the club’s interest in the signature of up-and-coming Brazilian defender Arthur Dias.
Dias, for his part, is a 19-year-old stopper, who chiefly lines out in a central role, but is also capable of filling in at left-back.
Despite his tender years, the Brazilian is already one of the first names on the team sheet at Athletico Paranaense. His stellar efforts at club level recently gave rise to a first-ever senior international call-up, culminating in his Brazil debut under the watch of Carlo Ancelotti.
