Santos president Luis Alvaro Ribeiro believes a loan deal for the Brazilian is now ’98 per cent concluded’.
The Santos president told Arena Sportv: “I would say that the negotiations have now advanced three percentage points from the 95 per cent.
“I hope it will increase one per cent every 24 hours.
“There are a few financial and contractual details still to sort out. But we are finalising them and I think it will be this Thursday.”
