Eduardo Conceicao: United told what they must do to sign Palmeiras winger Manchester United have exploded into the race to sign Palmeiras sensation Eduardo Conceicao. On Monday, The Peoples Person relayed a report claiming United have promised to make a bid worth €40 million (£34. 8m), including add-ons, in the coming days to sign the 16-year-old right-footed left-winger It was also suggested that United are already in contact with Conceicao’s representatives.

Palmeiras set Eduardo Conceicao price tag According to Mundo Deportivo , Eduardo Conceicao recently signed his first professional contract with Palmeiras. The deal is valid until 2029 and includes a massive €100 million release clause. The Spanish outlet, however, claims the Brazilian wonderkid could leave for much less by following the formula of a sale to a ‘big club’ plus a two-year development deal at Palmeiras.

FIFA rules would prevent him from moving to Europe until he turns 18. It is understood United are preparing their first offer for Conceicao , who has also been linked with Barcelona. However, the Red Devils’ main rivals for his services are the City Football Group and Newcastle United, who have already submitted a €25m offer, excluding bonuses.

Amid growing interest in their prodigy, Palmeiras are aiming to fetch €50m (£43. 5m) before letting him leave and follow in the footsteps of former academy gems Endrick and Estevao to Europe. Accordingly, it appears there is just a gap of £8.
